Does reading the parasha with Rashi's commentary fulfill the Targum component of shnayim mikra?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules that Rashi's commentary has the same status as Targum, and thus reading twice in Hebrew plus once in Rashi fulfills the obligation. A God-fearing person, however, should read both Targum and Rashi.
