About Us

about the kollel

The “Second Seder Kollel” is comprised of over a hundred serious avreichim from all over the world who came to Eretz Yisrael for the sole purpose of learning Torah and growing spiritually. 

They utilize these precious years of learning to absorb a tremendous amount of halachic knowledge. The skills and knowledge they imbibe during this stage in their lives are crucial: a solid grasp of halachah as it pertains to everyday life as a Torah Jew. After our avreichim leave the beis medrash for the workforce, they find that the strong foundation of learning that was built in our kollel is crucial in enabling them to remain committed bnei Torah and to continue learning with the high standards of the kollel. 

Our kollel offers a daily riveting shiur and rigorous curriculum, as well as monthly comprehensive tests, motivating a thorough review, with an option for semichah available. Our members forge close bonds with the roshei kollel, Rabbi Shraga Kallus and Rabbi Yitzchok Boehm, and feel comfortable turning to them even after they leave the kollel. Shiurim are available online to facilitate review and enable alumni to keep up with the kollel’s curriculum. 

Together we can be partners in enabling Torah learning to reach new heights. 

In the merit of your generosity may you have success and health, and may you be blessed in all your future endeavors. You should merit to see the fulfillment of the passuk (Mishlei 3, 18), “Eitz chaim he lamachazikim bah.”
