Zman Choref has begun with a palpable level of excitement, talmidim experiencing the thrill of learning, building off the momentum of the Yamim Noraim, and recharged from the short bein hazmanim right before the zman.
This year in particular we are on a particular high due to the special programming during Bein Hazmanim.
The excitement does not stop and we invite you
to watch this taste of the day's festivities!!
On Thursday of Chol Hamoed Sukkot more than 4000 people ascended to Yeshivat Har Etzion for a day geared for the whole family. From 12-5 there were shiurim, panels, and parent-child learning, as well as activities for younger children including 7 bouncy castles, pita baking, and more. At 5 all the alumni gathered in the Beit Midrash and heard a “5-minute” talk from all 3 Roshei Yeshiva about their vision for the future of the yeshiva. After that, everyone walked over to the nearby municipality hilltop for the ending ceremony.

The ending ceremony was a very moving event, including songs by the choir, short remarks from the 3 Roshei Yeshiva and Yeshiva founder Moshe “Moshko” Moskovic, and a few short presentations, as well as 5 short videos. It is an interesting reflection of our values as they were: 1. A video about the deep and long-lasting friendships formed in Yeshiva, 2. A tribute to alumni serving in the Rabbinate, 3. A salute to Har Etzion overseas alumni who made aliya, 4. A tribute to the Yeshiva’s dedicated office, kitchen, and maintenance staff, and 5. A video about the founding Roshei Yeshiva: HaRav Yehuda Amital zt”l and HaRav Aharon Lichtenstein zt”l.
It also included a video of the Yeshiva's Kululam - Beron Yachad Song Fest of our Favorite Songs (made in Elul of Yeshiva talmidim and bogrim singing Yeshiva niggunim in the Beit Midrash.) If you couldn't participate, or even if you did - relive it now!
