A Rambam Chidon on Hilchos Melech Hamoshiach was held at Mesivta Beis Dovid Shlomo in New Haven, CT this week, complete with tests, finalists, and prizes.

The bochurim competing in their knowledge of the Rambam’s Hilchus Melech Hamoshiach took a written test leading up to a Grand Chidon Tuesday afternoon presided over by three judges.

Rosh Yeshiva of the New Haven Mesivta, Rabbi Kalmanson sat with the Shliach to New London CT, Rabbi Sternberg, and Rabbi Roth, a maggid Shiur in the Yeshiva.

The winners of the Chidon were awarded prizes including a set of Lekkutei Sichos for the 1st place winner, and a Sefer Hasichos for the 2nd and 3rd place winners.

Yeshivas Beis Dovid Shlomo, under the direction of Rabbi Yosef Lustig, enjoys worldwide recognition for its excellent academics and the achievements of its students. Due to our well-known reputation, YBDS attracts students from as far away as Europe, Australia, and the Far East.

Founded in 2005-5765, with one class of twenty students, word spread rapidly and the demand for more classes quickly started. In 2009-5769 the Zal program joined the Mesivta, growing in just a few short years to a center of Jewish education for over 150 students.
