A living memorial
Mishnah Yomis, “The Daily Study of the Mishnah,” is a Torah study cycle in which two Mishnayos (brief collections of rulings dealing with the Oral Law) are learned every day. The cycle was started in 1944 by Rabbi Yonah Shtentzel.
Rav Shtentzel was born in Sosnowiecz, Poland, and moved to Tel Aviv in 1935. He created the cycle to memorialize the six million Jews who were killed in the Holocaust, through the global study of Mishnah.
It also offers a realistic way for even a simple, working Jew to become familiar with the six orders of the Mishnah, upon which the Jewish system of law is based. In just 6 years, even a layman can learn the entire set of 4,190 Mishnayos.
Give it a try
The recordings of Rabbi Elimelech Kornfeld of Ramat Beit Shemesh are clear and concise: two Mishnayos in about 7½ minutes. The pamphlets below are in Hebrew, prepared by the Mifal L’Limud HaMishnah V’HaHalachah Yomit to encourage the study of Mishnah Yomis.
