התדיר מחבירו הוא קודם. דאמר קרא (במדבר כ״ח:כ״ג) מלבד עולת הבוקר אשר לעולת התמיד. מכדי כתיב עולת הבוקר, אשר לעולת התמיד למה לי, אלא אמר רחמנא האי משום דתדיר, קדים ברישא:
וכל המקודש מחבירו וכו׳ דהכי אשכחן בכהן, דכתיב ביה וקדשתו, ואמרינן לפתוח ראשון ולברך ראשון וליטול מנה יפה ראשון:
פר משיח קודם. הואיל ומשיח מכפר ועדה מתכפרת, בדין הוא שיקדים מכפר למתכפר. וכן הוא אומר (ויקרא ט״ז:י״ז) וכפר בעדו ובעד ביתו, ואח״כ ובעד כל קהל ישראל:

Bartenura
האיש קודם לאשה –for he is holier than her, for a man is liable for all of the commandments, but a woman is not liable for positive time-bound commandments.
והאשה קודמת לאיש בכסות – for her shame is greater than the shame of a man.
לקלקלה – for sexual intercourse and for pederasty.
והאיש קודם – this is her practice in this matter and it is not his practice in this matter.
האיש קודם לאשה. שהוא מקודש ממנה, שהאיש חייב בכל המצות והאשה אינה חייבת במצות עשה שהזמן גרמא:
והאשה קודמת לאיש בכסות. שבושתה מרובה מבושתו של איש:
לקלקלה. לביאה. ולמשכב זכור:
האיש קודם. שזו דרכה בכך וזה אין דרכו בכך:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?
Mishnah Yomi is a daily study program where participants study two mishnayot (individual teachings from the Mishnah) every day. By following this program, one can complete the entire Mishnah in about six years.
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.

התדיר מחבירו הוא קודם – as Scripture states (Numbers 28:23): “You shall present these in addition to the morning portion of the regular burnt offering.” For since it is written, “the morning portion of the regular burnt offering,” why does it mention “the regular burnt offering?” But, because the All-Merciful stated – because it is more frequent, it precedes it in the first part [of the verse].
וכל המקודש מחבירו וכו' – for so we find with the Kohen as it is written concerning him (Leviticus 21:8): “and you must treat them as holy,[since they offer the food of your God; they shall be holy to you, for I the LORD who sanctify you am holy],” and we say to open first [with the Torah reading] and to bless first (with the invitation to the group to recite the Birkat HaMazon/Blessing after the Meals) and to take the first nice portion.
פר משיח קודם – for since the anointed bull atones and the community atones, and it is by law that what atones comes prior to that which obtains atonement. And similarly, Scripture states (Leviticus 16:17): “When he has made expiation for himself and his household”, and afterwards,“for the whole congregation of Israel.”
