Moetzes Gedolei Ha Torah

Moetzes Gedolei Ha Torah

Moetzes Gedolei HaTorah (Heb.: מועצת גדולי התורה ("Council of Torah Sages")) refers to the supreme rabbinical policy-making council of any of several related Haredi Jewish organizations.

The component words of the name are transliterated in a variety of ways. This is frequently done as Moetzet and less frequently as Gedolai and ha-Torah or ha Torah. The phrase is regularly shortened to Moetzes or The Moetzah.

Rabbis sitting on the various Moetzos are usually either one of the more prestigious rosh yeshivas ("heads") of yeshivas or Hasidic Rebbes who are also regarded by many ultra-orthodox jews to be the Gedolim ("great/est") sages of Torah Judaism.
