About Us

At The Maccabee Review, we believe in the power of the written word. We are proud to serve as the first digital, student-led literary journal of Yeshiva University, fostering an environment where students of both campuses can harness this power and share their words with the YU community and beyond. What started as a passion project between three friends at Stern College has become a space for young voices to reflect on love, grief, humanity, Judaism, and more. The poems, stories, personal narratives, and essays we have published here honor the values of Yeshiva University and, we hope, bring light to all who read them.
