Beit Matityahu, a prominent Yeshiva in [[Bnei Brak]], caters to the [[Litvaks]] Jewish community. It was founded in 1981 by Rabbi Baruch Weisbecker, who previously served as Rosh Mesivta at Yeshivat [[Kol Torah]]<ref name=yated /> and [[Bais Hatalmud (Jerusalem)|Beit Hatalmud]]. The Yeshiva initially shared facilities with Beit Yosef-Novardok Yeshiva in Givat Rokach, the first Yeshiva in Bnei Brak that was established by Rabbi Matityahu Shtzigel, the founder and principal of Beit Yosef Yeshiva, and his name is immortalized in the name of the yeshiva. |
