Based in Jerusalem and with branches across the
globe, Mizrachi – an acronym for merkaz ruchani
(spiritual center) – was founded in 1902 by Rabbi
Yitzchak Yaakov Reines, and is led today by Rabbi
Doron Perez. Mizrachi’s role was then and remains
with vigor today, to be a proactive partner and to
take personal responsibility in contributing to the
collective destiny of Klal Yisrael through a commitment
Torat Purim JEWS
to Torah, the Land of Israel and the People of Israel.

HaMizrachi seeks to spread Torat Eretz Yisrael throughout the world. HaMizrachi also contains articles, opinion pieces and advertisements that represent the diversity of views and
NATIONAL DIRECTOR interests in our communities. These do not necessarily reflect any official position of Mizrachi or its branches. If you don't want to keep HaMizrachi, you can double-wrap it before
Rabbi Elan Mazer disposal, or place it directly into genizah (sheimos). HaMizrachi is available to read online at mizrachi.org/hamizrachi.
