The organization does research in the area of Judaica. Presently, its major work is in the production of the Encyclopedia of Talmudic Disputes and Perspectives. It seeks to disseminate its works through publications, lectures and conferences. It is also currently working on an understanding of the nature of Time as found in Judaic sources throughout the ages, as well as how it is understood in contemporary physics and cosmology.

The four volumes, volumes 7 - 10, of the Encyclopedia of Talmudic Disputes and Perspectives: Beit Hillel and Shammai have been published and work has begun on distribution. Research is being done for Volume 11. This volume(s) involves the compilation of the Talmudic and Midrashic statements of R. Simon and R. Chanina b. Papa. Thereafter, we will strive to understanding the perspectives from which each of these rabbis generates his rulings. R. Simon follows in the traditions and perspectives of Bar Kappara and Reish Lakish, two rabbis that were major subjects in of two previous volumes.

Work continues on the exploration of the concept of time in Talmudic and Rabbinic thought and its relationship to modern theories of modern physics, relativity, quantum mechanics and cosmology.
