Mishnah Yomis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Judaism, Mishnah Yomis (Hebrew: משנה יומית "The Daily Study of the Mishnah") refers to the Torah study cycle in which two Mishnayos (brief collections of rulings dealing with the Oral Law) are learned every day. Previous cycles of the Mishnah Yomis began on 22 Tamuz 5770 (July 4, 2010), and 20 Adar-B 5776 (March 30, 2016). The current cycle began on Shabbat, 21 Tevet 5782 (December 25, 2021).

History[]

Although Jews have been studying the Mishnah ever since it was first compiled about 2000 years ago, this systematic cycle was first established in 1948 by Rabbi Yonah Sztencl. His goal in creating the Mishnah Yomis cycle was to memorialize the Jews that were killed in the Holocaust, through a global studying of the Mishnah. He also wanted to provide a realistic way for even a simple, working Jew to familiarize himself with the six orders of the Mishnah, upon which the Jewish system of law is based. In just 6 years, anyone can learn the entire set of 4,192 Mishnayos.

In 2020, Rabbi Yitzchak Silman, the grandson of Rabbi Shtenzel and one of the leaders of the Kviuta organization for the study of the Mishnah and the daily Halacha, initiated another study order: Mishnatit (mishnosis) - Mishnah per year, which offers four additional Study six sidrei mishna a year - years for a regular year and years for a leap year.[1]
