Commentary for Berakhot 28:21

ותו מי סבר ליה כרבי יהושע בן קרחה והאמר רב חייא בר אשי זמנין סגיאין הוה קאימנא קמיה דרב ומקדים ומשי ידיה ומברך ומתני לן פרקין ומנח תפילין והדר קרי ק"ש וכ"ת בדלא מטא זמן ק"ש א"כ מאי אסהדתיה דרב חייא בר אשי

Further, how could Rab be considered as holding the same opinion as R. Joshua b. Karhah ? For Rab Hiyya b. Ashe has said : On many occasions have I stood before Rab, who first washed his hands, uttered the benediction, taught us the chapters, laid Tefillin, and after that read the Shema' ! Shouldest thou argue that the time for reading the Shema' had not yet arrived, in that case what purpose is there in the testimony of Rab Hiyya b. Ashe?
