Unlike other 19th-century figures who pioneered the newspaper and publishing industries in Palestine, such as Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, the printer Israel Bak has remained under the radar. As far back as 1936, his lack of notoriety was noted in the Hebrew newspaper Davar: “In vain you will try to find his name in the Jewish reference books … and even in the books devoted to the history of the Land of Israel. They pass over him a little in silence.”

75 Years Following the Total
Destruction of Tiferet Yisrael Communal Center…

June 26, 2023.  The campaign to rebuild the special center to its former glory is well underway, through a partnership of private and public funds. Once complete, it will once again offer the highest observation point in the entire area, overlooking the Temple Mount, the Western Wall and the Mount of Olives.

With your help, Tiferet Yisrael will be built to the highest modern standards, while offering an exact replica of the unique finishings in the Russian-style architecture unique in this region.
