Good evening. In the previous lesson, we discussed the importance of the blessings of the Torah. Today we will continue with a fundamental question concerning the blessings of the Torah, which is how it is possible for a person to say the blessings of the Torah in the early morning. Whether he studied after the prayer, whether he did not study after the prayer, whether he later went to his work, the prayer, whether he later went to his work, whether he slept a fixed night before his death at noon and wants to return and study, like now he comes to class wanting to study, why wouldn't he return and say the blessing? At first glance, the blessings of the Torah are the blessings of the mitzvah. Our early sages divided the blessings into several types. So there are blessings of praise, there are blessings of enjoyment, there are blessings of commandments. There is a great rule in the Gemara in Pesachim, page 7: Rav Yehuda said, “ There is a great rule in the Gemara in Pesachim, page 7: Rav Yehuda said, “ Shmuel said, ‘All the blessings he blesses, he passes on to their performance.’” So if the Torah blessings are a mitzvah blessing that a person recites upon studying Torah, one must repeat the blessing whenever one makes a break. Just as a person, for example, puts on tefillin in the morning and is one of the pious ones who wants to put on tefillin at the minchah as well, right? Or such as in a fasting offering according to our custom. So certainly if it is tefillin, Drashi recites a blessing. why?
