From: "SBA" <areivim at sba2.com>
For centuries, rebbes and their talmidim have been teitching (Brochos 1:1):
'Ad sheyaaleh amod hashachar' referring to the 'morgen shtern' = the
morning star. .. Not one of the meforshim on Mishnayos explains it
thus.

I wrote 'for centuries' as the Tosfos Yom Tov already writes:
"Yesh regilin leposroy kochav hashachar...ach bekaan ein nachon.."
----

Looking into this further, I see that the Ikkar Tosfos Yon Tov quotes
the above Tosfos YT: "Yesh regilin leposroy kochav hashachar"
but leaves out the continuation: "ach bekaan ein nachon" !!

I also had a look at the (Hebrew) Artscroll gemara, and while it doesn't
translate 'amod hashachar', in the Notes (#7), it quotes the Mogen Avrohom.
If I understand them correctly, Artsroll too, is confusing Amod Hashachar
with Alos Hashachar.
