Introduction Congratulations on being selected to take part in the Onward Israel Jerusalem Summer Internship Summer’20 Session in Jerusalem! The program is hosted by MEOR and organized by jInternship. This unique and innovative program is a hybrid of Jewish learning and professional development. It mimics the Jewish ideal of placing importance on both Jewish learning and using Jewish values to succeed in the marketplace. In the program’s format, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about Judaism from some of the world’s top Jewish educators at Machon Yaakov - a MEOR-affiliated institution in Jerusalem - as well as to work alongside successful professionals in your industry of interest. We hope you will keep in mind that your internship has been secured through much effort, networking and administrative work. The opportunity is a privilege. You were selected because of the high recommendations you received from your campus rabbi/other references as well as the talents and potential that was apparent from your resume and your interviews. Based on this, we have great confidence that you will live up to the high expectations we and your host-company have for you. This Guidebook will introduce you to this carefully designed and powerful program; we are confident that the experience will help you reach new heights personally and professionally. 2. Your Professional Internship Since most students will work for different host companies, it is not in the scope of this Guidebook to discuss specific requirements for time spent at your professional internship. In general, you should discuss the requirements for the internship with your supervisor and your Internship Coordinator: Bashi Rosen, Ariella Abbo, Devorah Sher, Mordy Twersky, Aviva Cohen, Yael Perlmutter, Shana Segal, etc. Upon arrival in Israel your internship coordinator will supply you with a packet that includes information such as the contact information of your supervisor, directions to your internship, bus routes, proper attire, an overview of the work culture in Israel, etc. Make sure you understand clearly what their expectations are for you. It is equally important that you make clear to them what you hope to accomplish during the internship. If you have any problems with your internship, you should immediately be in touch with Bashi Rosen, Program Coordinator of jInternship. It is her job and interest, with 7 years of experience, to make sure that things go smoothly. You can also contact Jeff Surowitz, CEO & Director of jInternship, Rabbi Shlomo Gershenfeld from MEOR team, or the madrichim (student guides) for assistance. The entire team is committed to making the entire experience a success. Upon arrival in Israel, your Program will help you secure a Rav Kav card for public transportation to travel to/from work. 3 3. College Credits The jInternship program is not currently accredited for college credits. However, many universities will offer credits for summer internships done through non-accredited programs so long as the internship is supervised. Many participants have done this in the past. The jInternship team is happy to work together with your host-company’s supervisor to assist you in receiving college credits for your experience. Please tell Bashi or Jeff Surowitz before the program starts if you are interested in this arrangement. More importantly, make sure you contact the appropriate department at your university and that you understand all the requirements you will need to fulfil to receive college credits. 4. Travel Information Students are advised to arrive for international flights three hours prior to departure. Airlines overbook and late arrivals cannot always depend on prior reservations. Please check, ASAP, that your travel documents are accessible and have not expired. New regulations require that all passports are valid for at least six months after your travel dates. Please make sure that your passport is acceptable. In addition, please be advised that students will be responsible for any costs associated with late arrival at the airport departure terminal, or failure to arrive with proper travel documents, resulting in a missed flight. Similarly, if one arrives late to the program, or leaves before the end dates, he may be liable to a penalty fee set out by our sponsors, due to the program being highly subsidized ($60/day – each case should please be discussed with Rabbi Shlomo Gershenfeld). 4. What To Do When You Land When arriving on a MEOR ISRAEL trip you will exit with the group. After taking your baggage you will exit this area through the green exit since you are not bringing any items for business purposes. In the reception area you will continue out to the side walk and then turn right. There will be vans called a "Sheyrut” or “Nesher” to specified addresses in Jerusalem. Each sheyrut travels to a different city in Israel. It’s a shared van with around 12 passengers – find the one going to Jerusalem. This is the most economical way to travel to Machon Yaakov. The cost should be around $17. Our address is: 10 Ibn Denan, Har Nof Jerusalem. A private cab will cost about $90. This is the most expensive option. Address above. Alternatively you can catch the train to Jerusalem, and hail an inner-city cab (see Section 21 below for cab details) once in Jerusalem to address above. The Tel Aviv-Jerusalem railway line goes from the Ben Gurion Airport station to the new Yitzhak Navon Station on Shazar Street in Jerusalem (across the street from the Central Bus station) within around 25 minutes. Customer Service: *5770 4 5. The MEOR Men’s jInternship Program University is a time to prepare for life. Students want to experience different opportunities in the job market and build up a resume, they want to see the world and they want to deepen their understanding of life and Judaism. MEOR is offering an innovative and unique approach to Jewish learning, Jewish living and career preparation: Why not do them all at once? Enjoy all three in the jInternship Program Students in the MEOR jInternship program spend 8 weeks in Jerusalem dividing their time between experiencing Jerusalem, personalized internships and learning Jewish self develop and leadership values based on the values of the Torah. Most days are spent learning for 45-60 minutes in the mornings and then head to work in varied internships at top Israeli companies. 3-4 evenings students get to relax and enjoy Jerusalem while the other evenings they will get to participate in night activities. High-Level Torah Study Curriculum The Torah study in the mornings is facilitated by MEOR Rabbis and premier educators in Har Nof, Jerusalem. Classes include textual study of Talmud and philosophy. Special classes are also given in Torah perspectives on personal growth, mystical insights into the Hebrew alphabet, and leadership workshops. Every student also chooses a topic for personal in depth exploration with a mentor. They explore the Jewish texts

  • Residential Patterns of the Haredi Population in Jerusalem
    bs_bs_banner Volume 37.6 November 2013 2152–76 International Journal of Urban and Regional Research DOI:10.1111/j.1468-2427.2012.01187.x Between the Individual and the Community: Residential Patterns of the Haredi Population in Jerusalem NURIT ALFASI, SHLOMIT FLINT ASHERY and ITZHAK BENENSON Abstract This article examines how different levels of internal organization are reflected in the residential patterns of different population groups. In this case, the Haredi community comprises sects and sub-sects, whose communal identity plays a central role in everyday life and spatial organization. The residential preferences of Haredi individuals are strongly influenced by the need to live among ‘friends’ — that is, other members of the same sub-sect. This article explores the dynamics of residential patterns in two of Jerusalem’s Haredi neighbourhoods: Ramat Shlomo, a new neighbourhood on the urban periphery, and Sanhedria, an old yet attractive inner-city neighbourhood. We reveal two segregation mechanisms: the first is top-down determination of residence, found in relatively new neighbourhoods that are planned, built and populated with the intense involvement of community leaders; the second is the bottom-up emergence of residential patterns typical of inner-city neighbourhoods that have gradually developed over time. Introduction Social and ethno-religious enclaves, which form part of the urban landscape throughout the world today, are a central theme of urban studies. The creation and impact of urban enclaves was empirically studied and theoretically

Dorner Petition to the Supreme Court sitting as the High Court of Justice. 154 Israel Law Reports [1997] IsrLR 153 Facts: The Minister of Transportation, assuming the powers of the Traffic Controller, ordered the closure of Bar-Ilan Street in Jerusalem to motor traffic on Sabbaths and Jewish holidays during hours of prayer. Petitioners are secular residents of the area and representatives of the secular population in Jerusalem, who claim that the decision of the Minister infringes their right to freedom of movement. One petitioner—the Association for the Rights of the Religious Community in Israel—counter-petitioned that Bar-Ilan should be closed to motor traffic for all hours on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. Held: The Court held that the Traffic Controller was to weigh the freedom of movement of those who chose to use Bar-Ilan Street against the possible injury of such traffic to the religious sensibilities and lifestyle of the local residents.

In an attempt to vindicate himself and Rabbah, Abaye answers that it was not befitting Rabbah‘s dignity to go from door to door collecting the requisite matzahs, and that he, Abaye, was so preoccupied with his learning that he had no time to supervise the eruv.1 Mordekhai ben Hillel, the renowned thirteenth century German rabbinic authority,
