Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

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.

בזמן שהוא כלי מחולחלת – freely, it (i.e., the Mishnah) took [the term] מחולחלת/hollow, loosely put in (i.e., not packed entirely) for it does not benefit being loosely put in other than its mouth being outside regarding the matter of removal of the defilement from within it to the house, but here, where its walls are inside, it (i.e., the defilement) goes out through its mouth. But since the first clause of the Mishnah taught מחולחלת/loosely put in (i.e., not packed entirely) while it is a vessel, it also took it (i.e., teaches it) here.
כנגדו עד התהום טמא – but the rest is ritually pure. And we are speaking when it is not a handbreadth high from the ground.
תוכה או בבית תוכה והבית טמאים – because its walls are inside. But above (see Mishnah 1), where its walls are outside, it is taught that the defilement is in the house, there is no impurity other than in the house, but the rest is pure.
