History

The Yeshiva was founded in late 1977 by a group of students from the Mercaz haRav yeshiva in Jerusalem. The students originally lived on a nearby army base, but today the yeshiva has its own premises, and over 250 students enrolled. The rosh yeshiva (dean) is Rabbi Zalman Baruch Melamed.

Media organisations

Arutz Sheva-Israel National News has been founded and is maintained by the Beit El Yeshiva. The Beit El Yeshiva also founded yeshiva.co, a large Jewish website.
