Summary
Admanit, Tzuri'el (1915–73) was born in Berlin, Germany, where he completed secondary school. He also studied at the Montreux Yeshiva in Switzerland. A member of the Ezra youth movement and Bachad, the Religious Zionist pioneering movement, he immigrated to Eretz Israel in 1937, joined Kibbutz Rodges (later Kibbutz Yavne), and lived on the kibbutz until his death, working mostly in its dairy barn and as a youth group educator. A posthumous collection of his articles, Within the Stream and Against It (Hebrew), was published in 1977.
Ahiman (Chmelnik), Hanokh (1917–) was born in Bialystok, Poland, and completed secondary school there. He studied at the Tahkemony Rabbinical Seminary in Warsaw and was ordained as rabbi. A leader of ha-Shomer ha-Dati youth movement, he immigrated to Eretz Israel in 1940 and joined Kvuzat Avraham (later Kfar Etzion). He worked mostly as a vegetable gardener, and also edited Alonim (1944–6). He is one of the few male survivors of his kibbutz, that was destroyed in the Israel War of Independence of 1948, and lives today in the town of Efrat.
