The Institute For Dayanim:
Our Work And Mission
The Institute for Dayanim is pleased to present
you with this brochure to help you become
more familiar with the Institute, its mission,
and its vital importance to Jewish communities
all over the world.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

‫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

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

Publications
Every month the Institute publishes a journal on contemporary issues in Choshen Mishpat.
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.

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.

Donations
Donations go almost entirely to support the
scholars and their families. 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. Donating to
the Institute is one of the greatest tzedakah
opportunities, because it goes directly to an
organization working to bring Tzedek, Justice,
to Jews all over the world.
