The mother of the groups of the religious kibbutz In the years 1931-1929, young pioneers immigrated from Europe, graduates of the agricultural trainings of the youth movements in the Had (Brit Halutzim Datiim [Alliance of Religious Pioneers]) and Ezra. They established Kibbutz Rodges, a cooperative agricultural settlement on the outskirts of Petah Tikva. For years, the kibbutz was the center of the religious kibbutz movement.
In 1941-1940, the people of Rodges received a plot of land on the coastal plain and immigrated to settle in the new place. The name of the kibbutz was converted to the Yavneh group.
In the 1950s, Bnei Akivas Etzion nucleus, graduates of Youth association and kibbutz members, and a pioneering nucleus of Bnei Akiva alumni from North America were absorbed into the place.
Thus, the Yavneh group became the largest religious kibbutz, a cooperative kibbutz for everything.
