Mishnayos Machshirin Perek 4 Mishnah 5
מכשירין פרק ד׳ משנה ה׳
Bartenura
הניתזין (that are splashing) – from it outwards.
והצפין (that which overflows the vessel) – above and goes outward. All of them are not [considered as] under the law of “when water is put” (Leviticus 11:38), because they are not done intentionally, and similarly the water that is inside of them.
נטלה לשפכה – that he did not pour them out in their place but rather he took the trough to pour the water out in another place, they are [considered as] under the law of “when water is put,” for they are done intentionally, since he did not pour them out immediately there in their place.
ובית הלל אומרים – since he did not leave them there but took them to pour them, they are not [considered as] under the law of “when water is put.”
הניחה – if he left the trough there from the outset in order that the drippings from the roof would come down upon it.
אלו ואלו – The School of Shammai and the School of Hillel agree that even though that he took it and afterwards poured it out, they are under the law of “when water is put,” since he had already considered/intended it.
מים העולים בידיו – that he washes [his clothing] with them, and it is satisfactory to him.
ברגליו – it is not satisfactory to him.
אא"כ נטנפו רגליו (unless his feet become muddy/soiled) – they are under the law of “when water is put,” anything that he would fill in a jar that is mentioned above, for water that comes up after it is under the law of “when water is put,” as it is explained above, because it is impossible for water to enter into it until they touch its outside (but the Halakha does not follow Rabbi Eliezer).
הנתזין. ממנה לחוץ:
והצפין. למעלה ויצאו לחוץ. כולהו אינן בכי יותן, לפי שהן שלא לרצון, וכן המים שבתוכה:
נטלה לשפכן. שלא שפכן במקומן, אלא נטל העריבה לשפוך המים במקום אחר, הרי הן בכי יותן, דלרצון הן הואיל ולא שפכן מיד שם במקומן:
ובית הלל אומרים. כיון שלא הניחן שם אלא נטלה לשפכן, אינן בכי יותן:
הניחה. אם הניח את העריבה מתחילה כדי שירד הדלף לתוכה:
אלו ואלו. בית שמאי ובית הלל מודים שאף על פי שנטלה אח״כ ושפכה, הרי הן בכי יותן, הואיל וכבר חישב עליהן:
מים העולים בידיו. שמכבס בהן, ניחא ליה:
ברגליו. לא ניחא ליה:
אא״כ נטנפו רגליו. הוו בכי יותן. מידי דהוה אממלא בחבית דלעיל, דמים העולים אחריה בכי יותן, כדפרישנא לעיל, לפי שאי אפשר למים ליכנס לתוכה עד שיגעו לאחוריה:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ

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.
