Ner Israel yeshiva center

Baltimore, Maryland, became a major center of American Orthodox Torah life with the founding of Yeshivas Ner Yisroel (Ner Israel Rabbinical College) in 1933 by Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchok Ruderman, a disciple of the Alter of Slabodka. It was the first major yeshiva established outside the New York area and grew, under Rabbi Ruderman's leadership, into one of the most influential yeshivas in North America.
