Yeshivat Har Bracha

In addition to the standard Hesder program, the yeshiva offers several programs: Shiluvim Program – a scholarship program that allows single and married students who have graduated the Hesder program the opportunity to obtain an academic degree at Ariel University, while continuing their Torah studies in the yeshiva. Advanced Degree Program – for graduates of the Shiluvim program who continue for Masters and Doctorate degrees. The program advances students who excel in investigative research, with the understanding that delving into the natural sciences is not only a way to make a living, but also a tool for the deepening of the Torah, and the implementation of the Heavenly ideals in everyday life. == Publications ==

Haredi Ban on Some Publications On May 2, 2022, six prominent hareidi rabbis issued a letter banning Melamed's Peninei Halacha Books which they claim ‘uproot halachic traditions’. The Har Bracha yeshiva headed by Melamed chose not to respond to the letter of those hareidi rabbis. == See also ==
