Description
הַחֲסִידִים, אֲפִילוּ הַבֵּינוּנִים, הָיוּ בְּקִיאִים בְּתַּנַ"ךְ
Chassidim, even those of average spiritual stature, used to be thoroughly knowledgeable in the Tanach.
וּמִנְהָג מְסוּדָּר הָיָה אֶצְלָם
it was their regular custom
אֲשֶׁר אַחַר לִמּוּד שִׁעוּר מִשְׁנָיוֹת שֶׁאַחֲרֵי תְּפִלַּת שַׁחֲרִית
After their [daily] study of Mishnayos following the Morning Service,
בְּשַׁעַת קְפִילַת הַטַּלִית וּתְפִילִין
while putting away their tallis and tefillin.
הָיוּ אוֹמְרִים שִׁעוּר בְּתַּנַ"ךְ
to read chapters of Tanach
בְּאוֹפֶן אֲשֶׁר בְּמֶשֶׁךְ שְׁלֹשָׁה חֳדָשִׁים הָיוּ גוֹמְרִים אֶת הַתַּנַ"ךְ
Their schedule enabled them to complete the entire Tanach in three months.
