This small colony* started when 42 families from Mezeritch in Poland decided to buy land in Israel-land. Their messengers bought this remote land in 1883 and the first seven families settled there in spring 1884. Hard work, thefts and Malaria killed many of them, but they refused to leave the site. In 1887 it was put under Baron Rotshield's control, and his decision to make it a center for perfume production almost brought this colony to deadlock. Only the arrival of more efficient farmers save this small colony.
One of those families was the Dobrovin family, converted Christian from Russia, and their estate "The Dobrovin Estate" serves today as a museum showing the "old days" in the colony.
The origin of the name come from the bible (Ezra 7,9 - foundation of the ascent).

* Moshava (Colony) was a name for an agricultural settlement in which the farmers own their land and work it and ship their products privately. The first colony was Petah Tikva.
