Machon Meir, founded by Rabbi Dov Begon, a decorated hero of the IDF who helped liberate Jerusalem and the Western Wall, stands as a testament to the transformative power of Torah.

Rabbi Begon, deeply moved by the miracle of the Jewish people's return to their ancestral land, sought to deepen his own connection to Torah. His journey led him to the renowned Merkaz HaRav Kook Yeshiva, where he absorbed the wisdom of his teachers who embraced a "Torah of Love and Faith."

Fueled by a desire to share this transformative experience, Rabbi Begon established Machon Meir in the wake of the Yom Kippur War. Recognizing the yearning of many Israelis to explore their Jewish learning roots, he created a welcoming space for "Teshuva," a return to their Jewish identity.

Today, Machon Meir flourishes as a vibrant center for Jewish learning, offering Israelis of diverse backgrounds and experiences the opportunity to engage with Torah in a profound and meaningful way.

At the heart of the program lies a philosophy of personalized attention. Each student is paired with a dedicated mentor who guides them through their unique journey of Jewish learning. Whether a seasoned scholar or a complete beginner, every individual finds their path nurtured and supported.

The esteemed faculty at Machon Meir, renowned for their passion and expertise, deliver dynamic lectures that bring the ancient texts to life. Their diverse perspectives enrich the Jewish learning experience, sparking intellectual curiosity and fostering a love for Torah study.

But Machon Meir goes beyond the pages of textbooks.
