ืืื ืืื ื ืืืื ืืช ืืืื ืืื ื ื ืคืฉืืช โ And regarding capital cases, it is written (Deuteronomy 13:15): โ You shall investigate and inquire [and interrogate thoroughly]โฆ,โ and this is the law of the Torah. But the Sages said that we do not lengthen in investigations and inquiries in monetary cases so that we donโt shut the door before borrowers, other than if the Jewish court saw that the proceedings in court which bear evidences of fraudulent claims or statements (see Sanhedrin 32a). For investigations and inquiries are the question in its own accord, such as: โhow much [money] did you lend him?โ and โwhen did you lend him?โ and โfor what purpose did you lend him?,โ and โin what place did you lend him?โ But there is another type of question which is called examination and it is not related to the matter, such when they ask him: โWhat was he wearing? Black utensils or what utensils? Was he standing or sitting at the time you lent him?
ืคืืชืืื โ the give-and-take of the judgment case, whether for acquittal or for guilt.
ืืืืืจืื โ they reverse the decision after they have completed the deliberations and knew that they had erred.
ืืืื ืืื ืืืืืื ืืืื โ that if one of he students said: โI am able to argue about him that he is guilty,โ we do not listen to him.
ืื ืื ืืืื ืืืืืจืื ืืืืื โ As it is written (Exodus 18:22): โLet them judge the people at all timesโฆโ and it is written (Deuteronomy 21:16): โWhen (i.e., โon the dayโ) he wills the property to his sons, [he may not treat as first-born the son of the loved one in regard of the son of the unloved one who was older].โ In what manner? The daytime is the beginning of the proceedings and the night time is the conclusion of the judgment.
ืื ืื ืืืื ืืืืืจืื ืืืื โ As it is written (Numbers 25:4): โ[The LORD said to Moses, โTake all the ringleaders] and have them publicly impaled before the LORD (i.e., during the sunlight), [so that the LORDโs wrath may turn away from Israel.โ]โ
ืืืืจืื ืื ืืืื ืืื ืืืืืช ืืื ืืืืื โ As Scripture states (Isaiah 1:21): โ[Alas, she has become a harlot, the faithful city] that was filled with justice, where righteousness dwelt โ [but now murderers].โ
ืืคืืื ืืื ืื ืื ืื ืืขืจื ืฉืืช โ as it will be found that the completion of the legal proceedings will be on Shabbat [proper] and to delay it until after Shabbat is impossible because of the delay in executing judgment [is illegal], and to judge him on that [selfsame] day is impossible, for the four forms of capital punishment do not override the Sabbath, as it says (Exodus 35:3): โYou shall kindle no fire throughout your settlements on the sabbath day,โ it taught regarding those who were liable for burning, that we do not burn them on the Sabbath, and this same law applies to the other forms of capital punishment.

Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

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.
