Yeshiva Etzion is a yeshiva located in Queens, NY. The yeshiva was established in 2003 by Rabbi Avraham Gaon. Like many yeshivot, Yeshiva Etzion is a center of Talmud, Halacha and other Jewish studies and is open to students of all backgrounds. Yeshiva Etzion is a place that prepares the talmidim not only to learn Torah but to be ready for the world. A Bachur that comes to the Yeshiva will be ready for the challenges that lie ahead of him. The Yeshiva is geared to the serious Bachur who is attending college yet wants to learn Torah and grow. Some of the unique aspects of the Yeshiva are as follows; * A curriculum which is designed to specifically meet the Bachur’s needs, maximizing the potential and goals of each individual * An understanding of the needs of both the Bachur and the community and the ability to combine and develop them both * Rebbeim that serve as mentors and guides to their Talmidim, this special relationship carries on well after a Bachur leaves the Beit Midrash * Dynamic and exceptional learning and systems of teaching that promote individual growth * Close proximity to Queens college in the heart of Kew Gardens Hills At Yeshiva Etzion we view Torah as a way of life. ==Yeshiva for College Students== The argument of how to pursue a secular education and yet learn Torah at the same time is an old and controversial question in Jewish philosophy. From the times of the codification of the Tanach in the early second temple era, there were books designated as "seforim chitzonim" or books outside of Jewish study. It was forbidden to study these works and reading them could subject the reader to the title of "epikorus" (heretic). Since that time, there has been a strong reactionary trend against secular study from within traditional Jewry. Notable exceptions include Maimonides who insists that the only true way to appreciate God's wisdom is to study the natural world. Notwithstanding the philosophical battle which rages until today, there are a great many Jewish students in college today, carrying an enormous challenge of being part of an ancient culture and modern society at the same time. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yeshiva Etzion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
