About Yeshivat Torat Shraga
The Yeshiva’s unique combination of high-level shiurim and unparalleled Rebbe/Talmid relationship is reflective of the personality of its Rosh Hayeshiva, Harav Avishai David shlit”a. Rav David, a close talmid of Rav Yosef Dov Soloveitchik zt”l and Rav Nisson Alpert zt”l, and a renowned Talmid Chacham in his own right, has held numerous educational and Rabbinic posts in North America including Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Or Chaim in Toronto before making aliyah with his family. Since then, Rav David has served as the Rav of Beit Medrash Torani Leumi in Beit Shemesh, as Maggid Shiur in Yeshivat Ohr Etzion, Shaarei Mevaseret Zion, Michlala and as the Rosh HaMidrasha of Michlelet Mevaseret Yerushalayim.
