التاريخ
The moshav was founded in 1940 as one of the "Ussishkin Fortresses", named after Menahem Ussishkin, by a mixed group of immigrants from Europe and native Sabras (Palestine-born Jews), for workers in the tower and stockade settlements in the Upper Galilee. It was named after Hillel Yaffe, a doctor who immigrated to Mandatory Palestine during the Second Aliyah. During the 1948 Arab–Israeli War Beit Hilel was temporarily abandoned due to the battles in the area; at that time, the village had a population of 98 and settled on an area of 1,085 dunams. Settlement was resumed in 1950, with the village receiving land from the depopulated Palestinian village of Al-Zuq al-Tahtani;[2] the new inhabitants were mainly Jews from Europe who survived the Holocaust.[3]
Today the inhabitants of the moshav make their livelihood from agriculture, cattle farming, and tourism.
