Musical career

Since the late 1960s, Chait has composed hundreds of Jewish religious songs that still have wide popularity and appeal. Included in this list is his original composition, "Kol Ha'Olam Kulo". He founded several bands including The Rabbis' Sons and Kol Salonika and has published dozens of records.

Educational career

Rabbi Chait is the founder of a yeshiva high school in Israel called Maarava Machon Rubin. The school combines religious studies with secular studies at a level allowing graduates to complete their matriculation exams. The school officially caters to the Haredi sector of Israeli society, but due to its inclusion of secular studies it draws from the moderate elements of Haredi culture including many students from American backgrounds.

Writing career

Rabbi Chait has also written a number of children's educational books on Jewish topics. Please see ยง External links, below, for a WorldCat link.
