Maʻaleh - The Center for Religious Zionism

Maʻaleh - The Center for Religious Zionism (Hebrew: מעלה - המרכז לציונות דתית) is an Israeli nonprofit association (amuta) established in 1988. Its stated purpose is to research, promote, and disseminate the teachings of Religious Zionism. The organization operates a nationwide network of Torah study classes and runs the website Jewtube, which hosts films in the spirit of Religious Zionism. In 1989, the association founded the Maʻaleh School of Film and Television, which today operates independently of the association. That same year, it took responsibility for renewing the publication of the journal 'Gvilin - For Religious-National Thought' (edited by Moshe Krone), under which two volumes (issues 1-4) appeared. In 1992, the association petitioned the Israeli High Court of Justice against the Ministers of Finance, Education, and Culture, and against the 'El HaMa'ayan' association and others, after its application to the Budgeting Committee of the Ministry of Education and Culture for financial support was rejected because the budget item from which it sought support was defined as 'cultural activity for the ultra-Orthodox.' The association argued that 'Haredi' is any person who trembles at the word of God, and that the association falls into this category. The High Court rejected their petition. In the past, Amnon Shapira served as chairman of the association.
