A new Anglo-yeshiva style community is slated to appear on the horizon in the not-to-distant future on the rolling hills of Binyamin, just 15 minutes north of Jerusalem. What will make this community unique, says the initiator of the project, Michael Freedman, is that it will run under the auspices of Rabbi Mordechai Tendler, grandson and long-time student of the late Torah giant, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein. Rabbi Tendler learned with his grandfather from 1966 to 1986 and served as his personal assistant and secretary from 1973 to 1986. Presently, the rabbi heads Kehilas New Hempstead of Monsey and serves as Dayan (rabbinical court judge) on the Vaad Harabanim of Greater Monsey. Freedman, himself a student of Rabbi Tendler, says that the planning group is looking for more like-minded families. Rav Tendler plans on being very involved in both the planning as well as the running of this community. Even though, initially, he will not live in the community, he plans on giving many classes (in person and via videoconferencing) and will be available for halachic guidance. Rabbi Tendler does plan on settling in the community in the future. The community will be located in a suburban type of town, consisting of single family, two-family and four-family houses. Owners can choose from a number of pre-designed styles. The actual cost of the homes will depend upon the number of early joiners. Unless the group decides otherwise, the community will be located in Kochav Yaakov. This yishuv is home today to about 300 religious-Zionist families and a similar number of Haredi families (in the framework of adjacent Tel Zion). The Tendler community will be situated on a nearby separate area. The entire village in which the community is planned is set to host 5000 families, with the Tendler neighborhood comprising about 1200 of those families.
