The Beit Midrash

Nesivos Chaim

The beit midrash operating under AMIT is Nesivos Chaim, known simply as “Nesivos.” It is named in memory of our revered teachers, HaGaon Rabbi Chaim Kanievsky zt”l and Rabbi Chaim Walkin zt”l, whose paths of Torah, diligence, and devotion continue to guide everything we do. Nesivos Chaim is home to AMIT’s core programs.

Married talmidei chachamim

Young Scholars' Program

A program for young married Torah scholars dedicated to the study of the wide expanse of Torah, structured deliberately toward three goals: comprehensive knowledge, real depth, and a living, personal connection to the material. Participants emerge as scholars of broad mastery and clear vision, prepared to teach, to lead, and to decide.

Open to all

Jewish Thought & Pnimiyut HaTorah

Alongside its core programs, Nesivos Chaim offers a broad course of study in the depths of Jewish thought and the inner dimensions of the Torah, open to all frameworks of the beit midrash as well as to learners from outside who wish to join. The curriculum draws on the writings of the Ramchal, the Vilna Gaon and his disciples, and the great masters of Chassidut, guiding participants through these teachings with the same rigor, structure, and living connection that characterize all of AMIT's learning.
