Mishnayos Menachos Perek 13 Mishnah 8
מנחות פרק י"ג משנה ח׳
Bartenura
יביא הוא ונכסיו במנה – such is explained its law in the Oral Tradition that the value of a bullock with its libations is a Maneh (i.e., 100 denar).
עגל יביא הוא ונסכיו בחמש – [five] Selas (i.e., one Sela equals four Denars).
אמר הרי עלי שור במנה – he should bring it for a Maneh (i.e., a Maneh equals twenty-five Selas), except for its libations, for such is what they (i.e., the Rabbis) established.
שור במנה הביא שנים במנה לא יצא – for it was established that a bull is with a Maneh.
קטן והביא גדול יצא. רבי אומר לא יצא – because of this, it (i.e., the Mishnah) teaches the dispute of Rabbi [Judah the Prince] and the Rabbis here in the concluding clause, to explain, that the opening clause is not the opinions of all but rather that it is that of Rabbi [Judah the Prince] and not the Sages, and the Halakha is not according to Rabbi [Judah the Prince].
יביא הוא ונסכיו במנה. כך נתפרש דינו בתורה שבעל פה, שיהא ערך השור עם נסכיו מנה:
עגל יביא הוא ונסכיו בחמש. סלעים:
אמר הרי עלי שור במנה. יביאנו במנה חוץ מנסכיו שהרי כך קבעו:
שור במנה והביא שנים במנה לא יצא. שהרי קבע שור במנה:
קטן והביא גדול יצא, רבי אומר לא יצא. משום הכי תנא פלוגתא דרבי ורבנן הכא בסיפא, לפרושי, דרישא לאו דברי הכל היא אלא רבי היא ולא רבנן ואין הלכה כרבי:

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.
