M'kor Chaim is a private Orthodox Jewish rabbinical seminary located in Brooklyn's Midwood neighborhood, operating from a converted residential building. The institution focuses exclusively on advanced Talmudic studies and rabbinic training for Orthodox Jewish men pursuing semicha (rabbinical ordination). The campus consists of a study hall (beis medrash), lecture rooms, and a reference library housing religious texts. Students typically pursue a rigorous curriculum of Jewish law, ethics, and religious philosophy through traditional paired study (chavrusa) and faculty lectures, with many residents living in nearby Orthodox Jewish communities. The seminary maintains strict adherence to Orthodox Jewish customs and practices, including separate study spaces and designated prayer times.
