On Sunday, June 29th, the Egged Bus Company inaugurated a new bus line, No. 48 to Beit Orot, the first regular public transportation route to Har Hazeitim. The new bus runs four times a day, at 8:55am, 1:30pm, 6:30pm and 11:30pm, staring out from and returning to the Hebrew University Mount Scoupus bus terminal.

Do not despair - while our leaders are weak, remain strong and steadfast - watch an emotional film full of rare video clips of the Holy City and Israel's capital as produced by Beit Orot.

If you are planning a Bar or Bat Mitzvah in Israel between May and September 2008, why not hold your simcha in Beit Orot’s beautiful outdoor garden? Whether your party is 50 people or 250 people, morning, noon or night, meat or dairy, Beit Orot is a great location and provides first-rate catering in a pleasing atmosphere.

As part of the development and construction in Yerushalayim in general and Beit Orot in particular, a significant milestone has been reached: the building of a new temporary beit midrash that enables the development of the Irving Moskowitz Yeshiva & Campus alongside residential housing on the northern side of Har Hazeitim.
