Perek Tefilas HaShachar: Test 1, Parts 1-2

When the mishnah talks about an "hour", it means

• 1/12 of the time between sunrise and sunset
• 60 minutes
• 1/24 of the time between sunrise and sunset
• 1/24 of the time between sunrise and sunrise

These cases in the mishnah are a machlokes [NOT INCLUDING THE PARENTHESES]

• Shacharis
• Mincha
• Mussaf
• Maariv

The simple meaning of this phrase is:

• Ma'ariv is optional
• Ma'ariv can be said all night long, not just one specific part of the night
• Trick question -- even Rashi says "בגמרא מפרש לה"
• Machlokes between Rabbeinu Yehudah and BeHaG
• Machlokes Rambam and Rosh

This phrase in the mishnah is referring to

• Shacharis -- according to Rabbi Yehudah
• Shacharis -- according to chachamim
• Mincha -- according to chachamim
• Mussaf -- according to chachamim
• Maariv -- according to chachamim

• Mussaf -- according to chachamim

The question Tosfos asks on the wording of the mishnah is . . .

• Why the Mishnah uses the phrase "all day" for Mussaf, and "until the evening" for Mincha?
• Does Mussaf have a starting point, or is it really all day long?
• Mussaf can be said all day long
• Mussaf can only be said after the amount of time needed to say Shacharis
• A proof that Mussaf can be said all day long

The question Tosfos asks on the wording of the mishnah is really asking . . .

• Does Mussaf have a starting point, or is it really all day long?
• Why the Mishnah uses the phrase "all day" for Mussaf, and "until the evening" for Mincha?
• Mussaf can be said all day long
• Mussaf can only be said after the amount of time needed to say Shacharis
• A proof that Mussaf can be said all day long

Tosfos proves when Mussaf can be said from

• The Gemara in Avodah Zarah, which says that someone davening outside of a minyan on Rosh Hashanah shouldn't daven Mussaf in the first three hours of the day
• The korban mussaf could be brought all day long
• Why the Mishnah uses the phrase "all day" for Mussaf, and "until the evening" for Mincha?
• Does Mussaf have a starting point, or is it really all day long?
• Mussaf can be said all day long

The second issue Tosfos considers is

• If I haven't davened either Mussaf or Mincha, which comes first?
• Why the Mishnah uses the phrase "all day" for Mussaf, and "until the evening" for Mincha?
• Does Mussaf have a starting point, or is it really all day long?
• Mussaf can be said all day long
• Mussaf can only be said after the amount of time needed to say Shacharis
