Yeshivat Har Etzion, founded in 1968 in Gush Etzion, has become one of Israel’s outstanding institutions of learning, inculcating in its students intellectual excellence, spiritual growth and national commitment. For over four decades, the Yeshiva was headed by two of the most outstanding scholars and community leaders of our time – HaRav Yehuda Amital, zt”l, and HaRav Aharon Lichtenstein, zt”l. Merging the best in traditional Jewish learning with a formidable grasp of the modern world, the Yeshiva’s aim is not to cloister but to communicate, to educate a new generation of teachers and leaders.
