מי שלא חג. שלא הביא שלמי חגיגתו ועולת ראייתו:
ויום טוב האחרון. שמיני עצרת. ואע״ג דרגל בפני עצמו הוא, הוי תשלומין דראשון. וחג השבועות נמי אף על גב דלא הוי אלא יום אחד, יש לו תשלומין כל שבעה, מדאקשינהו קרא להדדי, בחג המצות ובחג השבועות ובחג הסוכות, מה חג המצות יש לו תשלומין כל שבעה אף חג השבועות יש לו תשלומין כל שבעה:

והוליד ממנה ממזר – that he brought those ineligible into the Jewish people and they [remain] for him as a memory, therefore, his sin is not erased through [acts of] repentance.
יכול הוא שיחזיר – the monies of his theft and robbery to the owners and it will be repaired from his the sin.
והוליד ממנה ממזר. שהביא פסולים בישראל והן לו לזכרון, לפיכך אין עונו נמחק בתשובה:
יכול הוא שיחזיר. דמי גניבתו וגזילתו לבעלים ויהא מתוקן מן החטא:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?
Mishnah Yomi is a daily study program where participants study two mishnayot (individual teachings from the Mishnah) every day. By following this program, one can complete the entire Mishnah in about six years.
What is the Mishnah?
The Mishnah is the first major written collection of Jewish oral traditions, forming the basis of the Talmud. It dates back to around 200 CE and consists of teachings and discussions of Jewish law by various rabbis.
Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.
How long does it take to complete the Mishnah with Mishnah Yomi?
Following the Mishnah Yomi program, one can complete the Mishnah in approximately six years.

Do I need to know Hebrew to study Mishnah Yomi?

What if I miss a day?

מי שלא חג – He did not bring his Festival Peace-Offering and his burnt-offering of “appearance”/pilgrimage.
ויום טוב האחרון – Shemini Atzeret (sometimes called, “The Eighth Day of Solemn Assembly”); and even though it is a festival of its own, it is an indemnity of the First Day [of Sukkot]. And the holiday of Shavuot (sometimes called, “The Feast of Weeks”) also, even though it is not other than one day. But it has indemnity all seven, since we make an analogy of Biblical verses [in a comparison based upon close proximity] one with the other (Deuteronomy 16:16): “[Three times a year] – on the Feast of Unleavened Bread, on the Feast of Weeks and on the Feast of Booths – [all your males shall appear before the LORD your God….].” Just as Feast of Unleavened bread has תשלומין /indemnity all seven days, even the Feast of Weeks (i.e., Shavuot) has indemnity all seven days.
