<font size=3>Reb Chaim G. Steinmetz pointed out the following to me
- You should add - "and they must have made kiddush
early"...<br><br>
Thus, the last paragraph of what I sent out about this should have
read<br><br>
Unless they "davened" through their learning, I have to
assume that it would have taken them longer than an hour and 40 minutes
to study this body of material. If so, then I must conclude that they did
not wait 72 minutes to daven Maariv on the first night of Shavuous!! They
must have davened Maariv early, <b>and they must have made kiddush
early</b>!!!! Only by doing so could they have finished davening, eaten
and learned what they did by Chatzos. <br><br>
All of the above is, of course, speculation on my part. <br><br>
