Yeshivat Hakibbutz Hadati in Ein Tzurim, founded in 1976, has acquired a
reputation as a dynamic, innovative and respected center of Jewish learning.
The highly successful program allows students to develop on a personal basis
and to acquire the skills that ensure that they will be able to make a
significant contribution to any Israeli or Diaspora community in which they
live. Torah, Oral Law and Jewish philosophy are all explored through a broad
variety of approaches. The integration of genuine Torah Judaism into the
students’ everyday life is of paramount importance. The centrality of the
Land of Israel and the State of Israel in contemporary Jewish life,
and a
love for Torah and the Jewish people are the foundation stones of our
pedagogic approach.
The overseas program is intensive, offers a unique approach to learning and
students are strongly encouraged to ask questions. The program is highly
cosmopolitan in nature with a student body from all corners of the globe.
The mornings are devoted to the in-depth study of Talmud, and the daily
program continues with shiurim on an extensive list of topics that include:
Tenakh (iyun and bekiut), Jewish Philosophy, Halakha, Prayer, Introduction
to the Oral Law, Homiletics, Jewish History, Contemporary Jewish and Israeli
Issues and a weekly shiur from the Rosh Yeshiva.
Yeshivat Hakibbutz Hadati recognizes that knowledge of Hebrew is an
essential tool that facilitates progress in Torah studies. As part of the
program, students learn the language in an intensive ulpan that provides
classes for both beginners and the more advanced students. The intimate
family atmosphere at Yeshivat Hakibbutz Hadati is enhanced by the daily
hevrutah between the overseas students and the students of the Shiluv. This
further enhances the Hebrew language skills of the overseas students, and is
a magnificent learning experience for all concerned.
Under the direction of the Rosh Yeshiva, Rav Yoel Bin-Nun, the Yeshiva is
continuing to stride forward in its aim to enrich the lives of its students
so that they in turn will enrich the lives of those in their immediate and
wider surroundings.
