מפני הרמאין. שמא מצא חותם שנפל מחברו או מאחיה או מיוחנן, ובא עכשיו ליקח. וביום שמצאו אינו רשאי להוציאו, שהאובד מחזר אחריו. ועוד יש לחוש שמא לקח חותם כשער הזול והצניעו עד שנתייקר השער:

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.
