History
MTJ began in 1905 as Congregation Tifereth Jerusalem on Hester Street and opened its yeshiva on Eldridge Street in 1907. Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, one of the most important rabbinic authorities of the 20th century, became its rosh yeshiva in 1938. The yeshiva is now led by his grandson, Rabbi Berel Feinstein.
