The Institute is a microcosm of the Jewish nation, with students from all over the world and from all groupts, studying together in pursuit of an advanced degree in Jewish Law. It is one of the only places where you will find Sephardi as well as Ashekanazi, Chassidish as well as Litvish students all sitting and learning together. When you enter the Beis Medrash you hear the students learning in Hebrew, English, Yiddish, Spanish, and French, all working together to better understand the mitzvos of Bein Adam Lechavero. This is in keeping with the Institute's goal of serving the entirety of World Jewry by producing leaders who will strive for justice and peace. The Institute is large, with more than 150 students training to become dayanim. Yet, despite its size, each student has been chosen individually based on his abilities and his potential to serve as a dayan for the Jewish nation. The Institute has uniquely high standards of Torah study: Students generally accept a taanis dibur (avoiding all mundane speech) during study sessions. Sessions are conducted for virtually the entire day with only a short lunch break, and learning continues almost every day of the year, including most regular bein hazmanim holiday periods. 2 Each student's progress is regularly monitored in order to ensure that our goals are attained, and a close staffstudent relationship is fundamental to the success of the program. Upon completion of the entire program, students receive the advanced Yadin-Yadin Degree. Upon completion of the learning program, students move on to serve on the Institute's Beis Din and Beis Hora'ah. These facilities cater to the needs of individuals and organizations all over the world who turn to the Institute for guidance and halachic decisions. In addition, the Institute's website (dinonline.org) operates in Hebrew, English, Spanish and Russian providing a wealth of articles and insights on a range of topics, and answers to questions concerning all aspects of Torah Law. This enables the Institute to communicate with Jews around the world. 3 The Institute The Torah commands Jews to adjudicate their disputes before a Beis Din (Court of Jewish law). Unfortunately, there is a critical shortage of properly trained dayanim. Many of the Torah Giants who in the past ruled on complex matters are no longer alive. A new generation of great Torah scholars has yet to emerge. Thus, Jewish litigants frequently bring their cases before unqualified dayanim or worse ... the secular courts, in explicit violation of halacha. For the Jewish people to survive and thrive, we must have an excellent system of Rabbinical courts. "G-d's presence will only return when the Jewish people have proper Judges". (Isaiah 1:27) History The Institute for Dayanim was founded in 1994. The first group of avreichim completed the entire Choshen Mishpat and received the yadin-yadin (semicha in Choshen Mishpat) degree in eleven years. This is a feat that very few people ever accomplish in their lifetime. These avreichim staff our affiliated Beis Din and Beis Hora'ah Nesivos Chaim. Avreichim who joined later are continuing to study until they too complete the entire Choshen Mishpat. Goals The Institute's goal is to make beis din a viable place to settle disputes. Additionally, the Institute educates the public on the need to utilize beis din and to conduct one's life in accordance with the Torah's monetary laws. 4 Rav Asher Flegg Rav Yosef Fleischman Rav Asher Flegg Rav Yitzchock Shuvacs Rav Yitzchok Shuvacs Staff The Institute has a world class staff of dayanim with passion for halacha and teaching to the next generation of Jewish leaders. The Rosh Yeshiva, Rav Yosef Fleischman received semicha from Rav Yosef Breuer zt’l and Rav Shimon Schwab zt’l, and later became a dayan after many years of study under HaRav Naftali Nussbaum. He also has a PhD in Mathematics and has taught at yeshivas as well as secular centers of higher education. Rav Asher Flegg, formerly the Rosh Kollel Choshen Mishpat and a Dayan in Kiryat Sefer, serves as Associate Rosh Kollel. The Mayshiv (respondent to students questions) is Rav Yitzchock Shuvacs, a renowned expert on Choshen Mishpat in Jerusalem. Before joining the Institute, he served as a Dayan at the Tvunas Aryeh Beis Din in Jerusalem. 5 What Do The Gedolim Say About The Institute For Dayanim? Harav Ovadia Yosef Zatzal, Rishon Letzion And President Of The Council Of Torah Sages Harav Hagaon Harav Shlomo Amar Shlit"a, Chief Rabbi of Israel The student body is composed of excellent students delving into Dayanut studies. Some of them already serve as exemplary dayanim. It is a great Mitzvah to support them generously. I know that the Rosh Kollel derives no personal benefit from the Institute. Furthermore, he does not discriminate between the different segments in the Jewish nation. Rather he accepts the most promising and suitable applicants, regardless of background. Support of the Institute will speed the coming of the final redemption. Harav Yosef Sholom Eliyashiv Zatzal, Posek Hador It is important to help this important undertaking.... Those who assist will receive munificent blessings from the Source of all berachos. Harav Zalman Nehemiah Goldberg, Beis Din Hagadol, Jerusalem A true place of Torah with exceptional scholars who study daily for a ten year period, much more than the normal amount of time studied in other places, and with hardly any rest, and constant review with difficult tests.... There is no doubt that from this group will emerge the finest dayanim and Roshei Yeshivot. Harav Yaakov Perlow, Novominsker Rebbe This institute is acclaimed and has become well known as a place that develops Gedolei Torah who are well versed in Denei Mamonos (Monetary Laws). They will, B'ezras Hashem emerge as outstanding dayanim who will serve Klal Yisroel. Harav Herschel Schachter, Rosh Kollel Yeshiva University New York Harav Moshe Halberstam Zatzal, Chaver Badatz Eidah Chareidis, Jerusalem I visited their beis medrash. Those completing the program will certainly be most qualified to serve as dayanim in all cases of Choshen Mishpat. Support for this institution is really an investment for the furtherance of excellent Batei Din. This is one of the most prestigious institutions in Yerushalayim. It is well known to me that among them are outstanding Torah scholars of the finest caliber studying feverishly day and night with tremendous vigor, to apply their knowledge to practical halacha. It is a great privilege for all who have a share in supporting this important Institution. Harav Naftali Nussbaum, Av Beis Din Ahavat Sholom I am personally familiar with these Torah students and know of their tremendous diligence. Now that I have tested them, I am filled with amazement at their vast knowledge of hundreds of pages of Choshen Mishpat among them the most difficult ones of Torah study. Many of them are already qualified to serve as dayanim. 6 Harav Shmuel Kaminetsky Rosh Yeshiva Philadelphia This is a wonderful institution. I am aware that many Rabbonim turn to them with their shailos. Harav Shmuel Fuerst Dayan In Chicago I am personally acquainted with the institution, one of the most prestigious in Jerusalem, studying vigorously day and night, constantly tested by the Gedolei Haposkim of Jerusalem. I personally consult with them on difficult matters. 7 What Makes Us Unique Program Of Study The schedule is rigorous. Our members study Choshen Mishpat thoroughly, incorporating the study of most major commentaries. Nine folio pages a month are covered along with all the associated texts. Each month there is a lengthy written, closed-book exam. Once a year there is a review period followed by an oral exam by a Dayan whose expertise is in Choshen Mishpat. Formal study sessions are from 9:30AM-7:45PM with an hour Mincha/ lunch break at midday. Members generally study an additional hour or two at night to complete the day's studies. There is also a seder on Friday to review material studied earlier in the week. The Institute for Dayanim stresses uninterrupted study. Sessions are conducted almost every day of the year. The Institute has only one week off in the summer and starts immediately after the Yamim Tovim. There is no talking during the learning sessions (sedarim), cell phones are turned off, and sessions start punctually. In order to be a successful Dayan, one must combine extensive Torah scholarship with a broad and general knowledge in order to grasp and apply this knowledge to practical issues. A Dayan is a real world job requiring information not only about halacha, but about relevant issues that come up daily in business and law. The Institute, in conjunction with lawyers and businessmen, organizes seminars to enable its graduates to successfully deal with relevant Halachic issues in business. Dayanim complete their training by serving an apprenticeship with leading dayanim. 8 Unlike Other Institutions 9 Education Student Body Avreichim are handpicked based on their potential for future success. There are more than 150 students currently enrolled, each chosen for his middos, intelligence, and leadership qualities. Everyone is striving to receive a Yadin Yadin, the semicha in Choshen Mishpat. Dozens of avreichim have already received at least one Yadin Yadin. There are many more applicants than openings, making it a very competitive program composed of the brightest scholars. Our Alumni Diaspora Program Rav Mordechai Mizrachi has served for several years as Dayan in Tel Aviv Rabbinical Court. Before attending the Institute, he studied at prestigious Yeshivot of Be'er Yaakov and Beis Hatalmud. He commented that the Institute is the best training institute for dayanim in the country. The Institute is committed to train dayanim for the entire Jewish world. Our students come from the U.S., U.K., Canada, France, Switzerland, Belguim, Mexico and Italy, to learn in this exceptional program. By having such a diverse student body, the Institute promises to produce great leaders not only in Israel, but wherever Jews live in the Diaspora. 10 Rav Baruch Rubanowitz, formerly of Los Angeles, California chose to study at the Institute after receiving semicha in all areas of halacha except for Choshen Mishpat. Upon leving the Institute he accepted the position of Rav of Kehillas Shivtei Yeshurun, an Anglo-Saxon community in Ramat Beit Shemesh, Israel, serving as their posek and spiritual leader. When asked to comment on the Institute he responded, "I have been at many Torah Institutions. However, immediately upon arrival at the Institute I was deeply impressed with the high level of scholarship, thoroughness and high level of concentration found among members of the institute. 11 Serving The Public The Beis Hora'ah - Beis Gross As a public service, our institute administers a Beis Hora'ah helpline to Jews worldwide. Six days a week dayanim and staff including Rav Nussbaum and senior kollel members answer questions from the public on Choshen Mishpat, review contracts, draft wills and conduct short denei Torah. These questions can be presented in person, on the phone, faxed or e-mailed. The Beis Din - Nesevos Chaim According to Torah law, Jews must adjudicate their disputes in beis din and not in the secular court. Our institute operates its own beis din, Beis Din Nesevos Chaim, staffed by our students who have received a yadin yadin degree and have apprenticed with leading dayanim. Rav Naftoli Nussbaum, one of the leading authorities in Choshen Mishpat, serves as consultant to the beis din. Jews throughout the world can access the beis din via videoconferencing and the proceedings can be conducted in English. The beis din is in session five days a week and handles hundreds of cases in a year. The cost is minimal (A typical din Torah costs less than a hundred dolllars per side.) and written decisions are given promptly with reasons. Judicial procedure is strictly adhered to and all proceedings are recorded. Since beis din operates under the Law of Arbitration all decisions are legally binding. Decisions of the Beis Din Nesevos Chaim have always been upheld by the secular courts. 12 13 The Institute for Dayanim שע"י מכון ירושלים לדיינות And under the auspices of Beis Horaah in memory of Baruch and Bracha Gross וע"י בית הוראה ע"ש ברוך וברכה גרוס ז"ל This week's article discusses the question of charity vows, in particular those made by means of a mental decision alone. Are such vows binding? Is their effect different, in any way, from a verbal vow? Can a person regret his vows? These questions, among others, are discussed in this week's article. This week's Q & A addresses the issue of when is best to give the Shabbos derasha in Shul. Think Before you Think: Charity Vows by Mental Decision One of the fascinating things about kodashim – matters pertaining to the sacrificial service of the Temple, and formerly of the Mishkan – is the power of the mind. Whereas in other Torah matters, mental decisions and thought processes usually do not have legal significance, in the area of kodashim they figure prominently in a number of laws. For instance, the law of pigul involves nothing more than a specific improper thought on the part of the Kohen performing the sacrificial service (such as intention to eat the offering at the wrong time or in the wrong place), which can entirely invalidate the offering. One of the primary thought-related halachic principles of kodashim is in the area of sacrificial vows. Based on the Pasuk (referring to vows), "That which emanates from your mouth you shall keep and perform," the Gemara (Shevuos 26b) cites a Baraisa as follows: "From where do we know that this applies even to a mental decision? Therefore it says: 'All whose heart is generous.'" The Gemara writes that this idea, whereby a person becomes obligated in consequence of a mental decision alone, does not apply to areas outside the sacrificial service. In mundane ØØ 196 Dear Reader! "Speak to the Children of Israel and have them take for Me a terumah. From every man whose heart impels him to generosity shall you take My terumah" (Shemos 25:2). The emphasis of this passage, and of the following passages, is on the voluntary nature of the contribution: Time and again, the pasuk mentions "generosity of the heart." The building of the Mishkan rested upon donor munificence. On the other hand, however, the instruction is given as a command: "Take for Me a terumah," and even the word "take" itself, by contrast with the more expected "give," implies a certain imperative. Why do we find this paradox, a subtle combination of imperative and voluntary action, specifically with regard to the Mishkan? It appears that although the פרשת תרומה תשע"ד 196 !קוראים יקרים האם. ובפרט בנדרי צדקה החלים במחשבה בלב,מאמר השבוע עוסק בנדרי צדקה מחשבה בלבד יכולה לחייב את האדם במתן צדקה? האם יש הבדל בין נדר החל בלב "דבר אל בני ישראל ויקחו לי תרומה מאת כל איש אשר ידבנו לבו תקחו את תרומתי" (שמות .) ב,כה יידונו במאמר, ועוד,לבין נדר החל בפה? האם אדם יכול להתחרט על נדרו? שאלות אלו .השבוע נדרי צדקה בלב:חשיבה מוקדמת אחד המאפיינים המיוחדים של ענייני קודשים – עניינים השייכים להקרבת הקרבנות במקדש הנושא המרכזי בפסוק זה – נושא שחוזר ונשנה בפסוקים הבאים ."– הוא הנושא של "נדיבות לב תרומת המשכן הייתה צריכה ,להינתן דווקא מתוך נדיבות לב .ולא מתוך כפייה בהם אין בדרך כלל כל משמעות למחשבות, בניגוד לשאר דיני תורה.ובמשכן – הוא כוח המחשבה מצד שני אין להתעלם,אולם מהעובדה שהקמת המשכן מצווה שלא,הייתה מצווה מלאה הייתה לבני ישראל אפשרות אמנם הייתה כאן.לסרב לה אך צורת קיום המצווה,מצווה הייתה דווקא בדרך של נדיבות .לב ידי מחשבות לבו אפילו בלי- לפיו אדם יכול להתחייב על,מבואר בדברי הגמרא שעיקרון זה למה אנו מוצאים פרדוקס זה ?דווקא בעניין הקמת המשכן עם. ולא לעניין חולין,לב תקפים רק לעניין קדשים- קובעת שנדרי, כפי שהובא לעיל,הגמרא בדין 'פיגול' נאמר כי מחשבת הכהן, לדוגמה. בדיני קדשים יש חשיבות רבה למחשבות,הלב עשויה לפסול את הקרבן, כגון לעניין שעת אכילת הקרבן או מקום אכילתו,המקריב שאינה כדין .כולו פי הפסוק- על.אחת ההלכות החשובות השייכות לתחום המחשבה בקדשים שייכת לדיני נדרים "אין לי אלא: ב) בשם הברייתא,"מוצא שפתיך תשמור ועשית" נאמר בגמרא (שבועות כו ."' גמר בלבו מנין? –תלמוד לומר 'כל נדיב לב.שהוציא בשפתיו אין אפשרות להתחייב בנגד בלי, בכל הנוגע לחולין. נאמרה דווקא לעניין קדשים,להוציאן בפיו ."

Many of these articles are based on issues that were raised in the beis din or beis hora'ah. This journal is widely distributed in Eretz Yisrael. The articles are renown for their quality and their ability to elucidate and resolve difficult halachic issues. The Institute has published a series of sefarim known as the Umka Dedina. Several members of the Kollel are publishing sefarim of their own. One of our members published the Siddur Hadin, a long overdue compilation of the rules of judicial procedure for batei din. Website Dinonline.org is the newest and most interactive addition to the Institute. The purpose of the site is to raise public knowledge of the importance of monetary dealings according to halacha. It is designed to expand the public's knowledge with in-depth articles, and in addition allows the public to consult online with the rabbis of the Institute concerning halachic issues. Every week the Institute disseminates a high-level article on the parsha, discussing halacha related to the week's sedra. The site also has a database of shiurim on halacha and daf yomi available for download. Symposia Three times a year the institute invites leading dayanim and interested lay people to a symposium on contemporary issues in Choshen Mishpat. Some of the topics in the past have been: The Influence of Government on Dinai Torah, How to Write Halachically Valid Contracts, Judicial Procedure in Batei Din, and The Halachic Status of Checks. This unique forum also enables dayanim from the various batei din to meet and exchange ideas. The main goal of the site is to promptly give correct and clear answers to sheilos from Jews around the world. The rabbis of the site answer questions in Hebrew, English, Spanish and Russian. Many of these sheilos are categorized and posted on the site. From year to year the volume of sheilos keeps growing. The site, in conjunction with the Chief Rabbinate has assisted many people of questionable lineage to determine their halachic status. 14 15 The Gemora tells about the partnership between the two tribes of Yissochor and Zevulun. Do You Have Halachic Questions About Your Finances? Are you being sued? Do you need to recover money or assets? Do you need help drawing up a will or a contract? The Institute for Dayanim may be able to help. Please contact us between 1:40-3:30 pm (Jerusalem time) at 972-2-502-3637 or from 6:30-8:30 pm at 972-52-764-2346. We can be contacted any time by fax at 972-2-502-3655 or at our website: dinonline.org Why Should You Help? Yissochor And Zevulun THE INSTITUTE FOR DAYANIM “YISSOCOR-ZVULUN” CONTRACT Chazal have taught us that those who support Torah share in the reward accorded to those who study Torah. Furthermore, Torah study yields the highest reward both in this world and in the world to come. It even enables those who study or support Torah to return at the time of techiyas hamaisim. (See the Shem Olom of the Chofetz Chaim in Sha’ar Hachzokas Torah Chapter 13-16). Moreover, the Torah attaches the highest priority to the establishment of a proper legal system (See below). Therefore, it is hereby agreed that ______________________ will donate _____________ to the Institute for Dayanim in order to support the Torah study of Rabbi___________ at the Institute. As a result, ___________________will be appropriately awarded for the Torah study of Rabbi ________________ at the Institute. This agreement in no way detracts from the reward that will be received by the one who studies Torah as we have been taught by Rabbi Chaim of Volozhin and the Chofetz Chaim. In testimony to this agreement the undersigned have affixed their signatures on _______________. ___________________________ _________________________ One who judges properly is a partner with Hashem in his creation of the world. (Shabbos, 10A) The world is sustained by Truth, Justice, and Peace. (Avos 1, 18) Hashem loved Abraham because he taught his progeny to live a just and honest life. (Tur Chosen Mishpat, Siman 1) The fate of the generation of the flood was sealed because of theft. (Sanhedrin 108, 1) The Jewish nation is guaranteed to achieve success in the wars if justice is carried out. (Rashi in Devorim 20, 1) 16 Yissochor studied Torah, providing the spiritual sustenance, while Zevulun worked to provide physical sustenance. According to the sages, both received the same reward for Torah study. The Peleh Yo'etz (erech chizuk) urges anybody blessed with the means to enter into a YissacharZevulun partnership, which gives him the great merit of Torah study even though he himself is unable to devote the majority of his time to it. In the words of the Tur (Yoreh De'ah 246:1, as quoted by the Rema), it is considered as if Zevulun himself studies Yissachar's Torah.. Share In The Reward Supporters of Torah studies share in the reward granted to Torah scholars. The Mishna says that there is no reward greater than that received for serious Torah study. Our Sages tell us that a person is rewarded for all of the positive results that flow from his actions. B'ezras Hashem our Scholars will be the future dayanim of Klal Yisroel. As a friend of the Institute for Dayanim you will be able to share in the merit (z'chus) of the proper legal decisions they will hand down. 17 מחז ור ש נ ת ת ש ע"ד 4 1 0 2 Rabbi Yechiel Abuchatzeira

The avreichim are married, and because the Institution is for advanced scholars, many have large families.The rigorous nature of our program makes it impossible for them to seek outside employment, meaning that they have to rely on their small stipend as their principle source of income. The Chofetz Chaim (Ahavas Chesed 19:1) states that one should primarily use his ma'ser money to enable indigent Torah Scholars to continue with their studies.
