Ultra-orthodox yeshiva in South Africa From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kollel Yad Shaul is a Charedi (ultra-orthodox Orthodox Jewish) yeshiva (seminary) based in Johannesburg, South Africa. The rosh yeshiva (dean) is Rabbi Yitchak Grossnass.
Established in the early 1970s, it was originally based in Yeoville, Johannesburg until 2000, when [1] it moved] to the suburb of The Gardens. Rabbi Boruch Dov Grossnass headed "The Kollel", as it is known, for 40 years; he took over from Rabbi Mordechai Shakovitzky. From 2018 to 2021 it was headed by Rabbi Baruch Rubanowitz.
The Kollel also provides a Beit Midrash open to the wider community and a lending library. It previously housed the Yeshiva Pri Eitz Chaim.
