The Kollel is located in Telzstone, a small and beautiful town in the mountains
surrounding Yerushalayim and home to a growing
community of young Bnei Torah.
The Kollel wשas founded in 2021 with the unique objective of learning
an amud of Gemara a day, and with the vision of creating a place not only
for limud haTorah, but also for acquiring, remembering and internalizing it.
The Kollel attracted some of the most prominent yungeleit, raising the level
of yedias haTorah and ahavas haTorah and impacting the entire community.
Rabbi Gershon Bertman Shlit”a, is a Choshuve Talmid Chacham with a passion for Harbatzas HaTorah, through giving Shiurim, and writing Seforim in various areas of Gemara and Halacha.
Born in Los angeles and raised in Yerushalayim Rabbi Bertman is an alumnus of The Chevron Yeshiva, where he was privileged to be in close contact with the Mashgiach Harav Avraham Salomon zt’l, and the Roshei HaYeshiva HaRav Dovid Cohen Shlit”a and HaRav Moshe Mordechai Farbstein Shlit”a.
Learning Halacha B’iyun in ‘The Jerusalem Kollel’, he received Semicha from HaRav Yitzchak Berkovitz Shlit”a, as well as from the Chief Rabbinate of Israel. Following that he spent many years learning in The Mir Yeshivah, as well as being a Maggid Shiur in Yeshivas Toras Yisroel.
Rabbi bertman gives Shiurim and Chaburos in the Kollel, using his talent in explaining the most difficult Sugyos with great clarity. He oversees the daily learning in the Kolell, answers the questions, and inspires and elevates the Yungeleit in many different ways.
In The Kollel we learn a new amud of Gemara each day without compromising on clarity and depth, and the yungeleit experience a strong sense of accomplishment as they advance in their Torah knowledge and cover more masechtos in Shas. The afternoon seder is dedicated for further depth and insight on the amud, as well as chazara. There is also a chabura learning halacha related to the sugyos that are studied in the morning. The yungeleit are tested the sugyos that are studied in the morning. The yungeleit are tested on a weekly and monthly basis and achieve remarkable results.
