Jewish seminary

A Jewish seminary, better known as a rabbinical seminary or rabbinical school, is a Jewish educational institution for the purpose of training rabbis. (In some cases, a "Jewish seminary" may also refer to a cantorial school.[1]) While rabbis have been part of Judaism for centuries,[2] rabbinical seminaries only became distinct institutions in the early 19th century.[3]
