Juifs Orthodoxes à Mea Shearim

Par Olivier Vogelsang

Religious school in the orthodox Jewish district of Mea Shearim. Orthodox Jewish French Dinovich HAIM of Polish origin and Jewish Moroccan Kadoch of origin born in Jerusalem, are both rabbis who teach in this religious (yeshiva) school of the orthodox Jewish district of Méa Shéarim in Jerusalem. This institution exists for four years. Dinovich was teaching at first in a Jewish center of study in Paris. He is the author of several books. In his arrival to Jerusalem he was followed by some of these pupils. Today the yeshiva counts a dozen French. The idea is to give a second chance to former israeli prisoners. Re-teach to them to live in community in a context orthodox religious people. It works with more or less of success. Most of the former prisoners were drug addicts.
