Daf Yomi (Hebrew for “a page a day”) is the century-old practice of learning one double-sided page of the Babylonian Talmud on a set schedule every day. The Talmud includes 63 tractates with a total of 2,711 double-sided pages. One cycle of daf yomi — known in Hebrew as a machzor — takes about 7.5 years to complete.
Rabbi Moshe Menachem Mendel Spivak originally proposed studying the Talmud on this schedule in 1920. It took three years for the idea to come to fruition, and the first Daf Yomi cycle began on September 11, 1923, the first day of Rosh Hashanah.
People around the world are currently engaged in the 14th Daf Yomi cycle. If you want to join in on the current cycle, you can subscribe to My Jewish Learning’s A Daily Dose of Talmud newsletter and receive an accessible, easy-to-understand insight from each day’s page of Talmud delivered right to your inbox.
