In 1972,
Rabbi Yehuda Assaf founded the Maimonides Research Institute in loving memory
of his late father, Rabbi David Assaf, of blessed memory. Rabbi David Assaf was
an eminent Torah scholar who devoted his life to studying the works of
Maimonides and began the monumental and historic task of publishing the
Maimonides Concordance. Presently, 15 volumes have been completed. Since its inception,
the Institute has superbly fulfilled its noble mission through offering diverse
and far reach-ing programs related to the works of Maimonides. Situated atop
the Carmel mountain range in Haifa, it has evolved into a major landmark in the
Galil, as well as an academic fountainhead of world renown. These efforts
impact on the lives of contemporary Jewry throughout the world.
Projects and programs of the Institute include :
Permanent collection of rare and precious Maimonides' manuscripts
In-depth research and analysis of the work of Maimonides
Publications reaching the Jewish scholar, school, child and family
The "Od Yôsef Chai" Kollel and seminary for Talmudic study
International seminars and conferences
Scholarly and contemporary projects related to Halacha, medicine and ethics.
