About the Kolel
Founded at the behest of the Rebbe in 5722 (1962), Kolel Menachem was the first Kolel in Lubavitch history.
- The beginning
It began with a small group of newly married men learning in the women’s section of the shul at ‘770’ and quickly became a central hub of Torah study and scholarship within the Chabad-Lubavitch community.
- Scholarship
Under the Rebbe’s direct guidance, members of the Kolel were entrusted over the years with numerous scholarly research and publishing projects for the benefit of the wider Lubavitch community.
- Standards
From its inception, the Rebbe personally oversaw its standards and upkeep, ensuring that the Kolel maintained the highest level of excellence in Torah scholarship.
- Today
Kolel Menachem continues to serve as a premier institution for advanced Torah study, upholding the Rebbe’s vision of rigorous scholarship and providing Lubavitch newly married men with a solid foundation of learning and life before they embark on their roles in the wider community.
