Explanation of Service Times: The Talmud (Mishnah Berachot 4:1, Babylonian Talmud Berachot 26a) records a debate between Rabbi Judah, who says that the afternoon prayer (i.e. the Mincha Amidah) must be recited before Pelag Hamincha (1 ¼ relative hours before sunset) and “The Rabbis” who say that it may be recited up to sunset.  The Talmud (Berachot 27b) presumes that if one allows praying Mincha up to sundown, one should not do Ma’ariv until after sundown.  It further states that one can follow either the opinion of Rabbi Judah , or the Rabbis.   This is understood by most medieval rabbis as meaning that one who prays Mincha after Pelag Hamincha should not do Ma’ariv until sunset (See e.g. Shulchan Aruch Orach Chayim 233).  In order to make minyan times convenient and maximize our opportunity to pray as a congregation, our daily minyan follows the Rabbis’ opinion during Eastern Standard time and some weeks of Daylight Saving Time (hence, davening Mincha before sunset and ma’ariv after sunset) and we follow Rabbi Judah’s opinion during most of Daylight Saving Time (davening Mincha before P’lag Hamincha and Ma’ariv after P’lag Hamincha).  Please note that under no circumstances should ma’ariv be done before Pelag Hamincha, as this is not night time according to any opinion.  For further explanation, please see Rabbi Gradofsky.
