Meet Nadav Yair


Meet Nadav Yair a convert who grew up in Kauai and O‘ahu Hawaii hearing great stories from the Tenach (Bible) from his grandfather. Hear his Amazing story of how he came to Israel in the 1980s joined Israeli Special Forces and now trains them in covert guerrilla warfare. Some call him the Mr. Miyagi or Karate kid of Israel.


He also happens to be an expert on fruit trees and grew up learning how to appreciate, connect to and care for them. See what he's done in Givat Kfar Tapuah in the Shomron Samaria, and watch him plant a whole bunch of new fruit trees to help settle the land, bring new fruit and life to Israel along with many more biblical mitzvot such are Orlah (3 year wait), Teruma (Tithing) and Shmitta (the Sabbatical year).




Excerpt translated from a psak (legal ruling) written by Rav Yaakov Ariel, leading Posek (biblical scholar) on the מצוות התלויות בארץ the laws of Agriculture applicable in the Holy Land, author of dozens of Seforim (books) on this subject, former Chief Rabbi of Ramat Gan and Rosh (director of) Machon Torah VeHa'aretz.

“...it is appropriate that everyone in the world partner with a farmer in Israel to fulfill the mitzvah of Shmittah, and through this partnership HE KEEPS THE MITZVAH AS WELL because the land belongs to us all...

I therefore bless the efforts of Zo Artzeinu’s Sh’mittah Campaign”

"You may plant your land for 6 years and gather its crops.
But during  the 7th year, you must leave it alone and withdraw from it..."
