[Avodah] Gezeros in the BHMK

[Aryeh Stein]

>>>The first mishna in Shas tells us that hekteir chalavim v'eivarim,
though their time for hakrava min haTorah is all night, were to be
offered by chatzos.>>>

Actually, Rashi (on the mishna) explains that by hekteir chalavim
v'eivarim, there was no gezeira that they had to be offered by chatzos
- the zman for hekteir chalavim v'eivarim is all night.  (Rashi
explains that the only reason that hekteir chalavim v'eivarim is
brought down in the mishna is to teach us that any mitzvah that is
done at night is "kasher kol halayla.")
