History

The moshav was founded on a site once occupied by the Arab village Khirbet esh Sheikh Mohammed ("The ruin of Sheikh Mohammed").[1][2][3] Kh. esh Sheikh Muhammed became settled during the rule of Ibrahim Pasha, either by Egyptians or by hamulas (extended families) from mountain villages.[4] In 1882, the PEF's Survey of Western Palestine found that it consisted of a few adobe huts among ruins.[5] Ancient glazed pottery has been found there.[2]

Although Yemenite neighborhoods had been established near many agricultural settlements, it was not until 1930 that independent Yemenite settlements were approved.[6] After a prolonged struggle by the Yemenite Workers Federation in Palestine, three moshav ovdim were established: Marmorek in 1930, Tirat Shalom in 1931, and Elyashiv on 13 November 1933.[6][7] Of these, Elyashiv was the largest and the only one that survived as a moshav.[6] The original fifty families were Yemenite Jews who had been in Palestine since the 1920s.[6] They belonged to an organization of Yemenite Jews called "Shabazi", founded in Petach-Tikva in 1931.[8] It is named after a high priest in the time of Nehemiah (Script error: No such module "Bibleverse".), and also in a symbolic meaning that God will return Israel back to their land.[9][10]

The land for the moshav was provided by the Jewish National Fund, which had purchased a very large tract from a Lebanese Maronite in 1929 with the help of a bribe paid to the seller's legal representative.[11] Agricultural instructors were provided by the Jewish Agency.[12] However, unlike with other moshavot in the Hefer Valley, no financial assistance was provided by the moshav movement.[13] The first decades were marked by continual conflict with the Jewish Agency.[14]

The population was 310 in 1945 and 460 in 1952.[7][15]
