What is Ro’sh Chodesh Kislev ?
Why is the week divided between Kohen, Levi, etc.? Is the passage directed at that group, or is that the reading for that particular group?
Do you have a book that explains each reading? I don’t understand the questions in the posts.

Ro'sh Chodesh=the new moon. Kislev in the new month coming in, so it means the new moon of Kislev.

The week isn't divided. The readings are divided. On most weekday mornings and Shabbat evening three members of the minyan come up for the reading. On Shabbat morning seven men come up. Each reads (or most usually has read in his behalf) the verses so labeled.
