Torah Study and observance
are integral components of Jewish life at every stage and in every
calling. Yeshivat Sha’alvim prepares its students for a life dedicated
to Torah, to Am Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, and Medinat Yisrael.
 Sha’alvim is nestled
in the natural beauty of central Israel, along the fertile fields of theAyalon
Valley, halfway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Surrounded by nature
and removed from the distractions of a busy city, the Sha’alvim
student can blossom and grow to reach his fullest potential as
a ben Torah.
At Sha’alvim’s Moty
Hornstein Institute for Overseas Students, young men from the United
States, Canada, Brazil, France, England, Belgium, Switzerland, and Australia integrate with Israeli students
– graduates of Israeli highs schools. Together they develop the
study habits, learning skills, and
middot to shape their characters and guide
them throughout their lives. Sha’alvim aims to create a model ben Torah and a talmid chacham.
The Rabbanim and Kollel
Fellows, with whom the students will forge and maintain a life-long kesher,
live in campus. They are always available to answer questions,
enter into discussions, offer emotional support, and to open their
hearts and homes.
Yeshivat Sha’alvim
was established in 1961 as a military outpost yeshiva. With the
liberation of Jerusalem, Judea,
and Samaria in 1967 it became
a Hesder Yeshiva, where Israeli students combine intensive Torah
study with active service in the Israeli Defense Forces.
