Limudei Kodesh

Limudei Kodesh classes are held in the morning and span the spectrum of Jewish studies. The lessons, taught by an outstanding faculty of distinguished Rabbanim, mechanchim and mechanchos, are deep, stimulating and thought-provoking.  Subjects include in-depth study of Tanach, sifrei Halachah and mussar, and the works of Rishonim and Achronim.  Regular tests are given on bekius in Tanach and Halachah.

Ofakim’s advanced Limudei Kodesh program is at the heart of its educational goals and our students’ seminary experience. The Seminary places special emphasis on constantly enhancing our Limudei Kodesh program in order to imbue our talmidos with vital knowledge, understanding and lessons that will accompany and guide them throughout their lives.

Both in the framework of formal and informal instruction, the latter of which is manifested in private meetings with teachers, in-class discussion groups, and special extra-curricular programs, our students are encouraged to ask questions, clarify doubts, and discuss practical issues in halachah, hashkafah and avodas hamiddos. Our staff members avail themselves maximally to the girls to answer questions and resolve difficult concepts with the goal of helping them achieve their full potential.
