The first of these Shabbatot is Shabbat Shekalim which is read on the Shabbat prior to or on Rosh Hodesh Adar or in a leap year Rosh Hodesh Adar Sheni (Second Adar). The reading is of the census in the Wilderness of Sinai conducted by Moses by means of each Israeli giving a half- Shekel and the counting the Shekalim. ((Shemot 30:11-16). In later times the Shekalim were used for the purchase of the communal sacrifice offered morning and evening. The second Shabbat is Zakhor (Deuteronomy 25:17-19) it is read on the Shabbat preceding the holiday of Purim: 17) Remember what Amalek did unto you by the way as you came out of Egypt. 18) How he met you by the way, and killed your stragglers, all that were weak in your rear, when you were faint and weary: and he did not fear God. 19) Therefore it shall be, when the Lord your God has given you rest from all your enemies around, in the land which the Lord your god dives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; you shall not forget. The tie-in to Purim is that in the Haftarah First Samuel 15:2-34 King Saul makes war on the Amalekites and captures their King Agag.
