In Hebrew "Gal Einai" means: "open my eyes." This name was adopted from the verse: "Open my eyes that I may behold wonders from your Torah" (Psalms 119:18)–thereby expressing the institute's commitment to rendering the hidden, inner dimension of Torah, a source of wonder, inspiration and insight for all.
