Yeshiva Ohr David in Yerushalayim exists to inspire growth-minded students as they discover the depth of Limud HaTorah and unlock their personal greatness. Through immersive Gemara, Halacha, and Mussar learning-together with experiential programs that connect Torah to real life – we equip each talmid with the skills for serious learning, the clarity to serve Hashem with authenticity, and the fortitude to live proudly as a Ben Torah in today’s world.
We want our talmidim to learn with understanding, not intimidation
Our Iyun, Mussar, Halacha, and Navi Sugyas have real-life meaning and application
We engage in discovery learning that leaves the walls of the Beis Medrash
Ohr David is a yeshiva built around growth, clarity, and purpose. We focus on identifying each student’s strengths and helping him develop them through serious Torah learning, strong mentorship, and a structured yet supportive environment.
Our approach empowers young men to engage Torah thoughtfully, build confidence in their abilities, and take ownership of their personal and spiritual development. Through rigorous learning, meaningful relationships, and a culture of responsibility, students grow not only in knowledge, but in character and direction.
If you are looking for a yeshiva that believes in you, challenges you, and equips you to become the best version of yourself, Ohr David is the place to grow.
Ohr David is for motivated students who are seeking a serious, meaningful, and engaging Torah experience. Our students are driven, motivated, and open to growth – intellectually, spiritually, and personally.
They come to deepen their connection to Torah, develop clarity in their learning, and build strong character within a supportive and purposeful environment. Drawn from communities around the United States, our students thrive on both personal responsibility and the power of learning together as a group, reaching levels they once thought were beyond their reach.
The Rabbeim at Ohr David are dedicated educators and mentors who take personal responsibility for their students’ growth. With years of experience in yeshiva education, they are skilled at recognizing each student’s strengths and guiding him toward clarity, confidence, and achievement in Torah learning.
Our Rabbeim are deeply invested in their talmidim – in their learning, character development, and direction in life. Through close relationships, thoughtful guidance, and high expectations, they help students translate potential into real accomplishment.
At Ohr David, Torah is not delivered as a lecture. It is learned, lived, and owned – through meaningful engagement, consistent mentorship, and a shared commitment to growth.
