Yeshivat Sha'alvim is a hesderyeshiva, a kollel and a yeshiva high school for boys, located in KibbutzSha'alvim. It is one of the most prestigious Yeshivas in central Israel. [1]
Yeshivat Sha'alvim was founded in 1961 by Meir Schlesinger, the rabbi of Kibbutz Sha'alvim. The yeshiva, like the kibbutz, was originally affiliated with Poalei Agudat Yisrael ("Agudat Israel Workers"). Schlesinger was the rosh yeshiva for over 30 years.
The yeshiva's campus includes a kollel (for rabbanut and dayanut), a teachers college, a yeshiva high-school for boys, an ulpana high school for girls, an elementary school and a Talmud Torah. In the early 1990s a National Religious yishuv named Nof Ayalon was built around the Sha'alvim educational campus. Over 400 families live in the yishuv including many graduates of the yeshiva.
The yeshiva is headed by Rav Michael Yammer, son of Max Jammer; the kollel is headed by Gidon Binyamin, rabbi of Nof Ayalon.
In 2006 Yeshivat Sha'alvim took control of the Isaac Breuer Institute (also formerly affiliated with Poalei Agudat Israel), which issues the scholarly quarterly HaMa'ayan. [2]
