In Gush Katif a significant world of Torah developed:
It was prominent in a wide range of Torah institutions which developed, such as yeshivas and kollels, but was also intense in the life of the settlers: in the network of Torah lessons for men, women and children; In the central place of the synagogue in the community; And in the direct connection between farmers and Rabbis – this special connection that gave birth to a number of unique developments, the best known among them is the cultivation of vegetables without insects.
The language of faith was the property of all the inhabitants, religious and secular alike. In the special reality of Gush Katif, everyone prayed: whether a prayer inside the synagogues, whether a natural and simple prayer of farmers waiting for a blessing, or a prayer of citizens who were on the Israeli front line and hoped for better days..
