History
The moshav was founded in 1950 by Jewish immigrants and refugees from Egypt, on the land of the depopulated Palestinian town of Bayt Daras.[2] The main source of income for the residents was animal and arable farming.
Like many of the other moshavim in the area, its name is symbolic and taken from the Tanakh, Psalm 31:23: "the Lord preserves the faithful".[3]
