How long do blessings last?

Hi,

We have been learning about Birchot haTorah, the blessings recited before studying Torah.

Although one may spend significant periods of time on pursuits other than Torah study throughout the day, reciting these blessings in the morning is effective to cover any study one does throughout the day, and even the following night. All day, we expect to return to Torah study.

(Code of Jewish Law Orach Chaim 47:10; Mishneh Berurah 47:19)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
