The Chasit Datit Toratit ( Hebrew חֲזִית דָּתִית תּוֹרָתִית Chasīt Datīt Tōratīt , German 'Religiöse Torahtreue Front' , in languages ​​without the sound ch (IPA χ) also Hasit) was an electoral alliance in Israel between the parties Agudat Jisra'el and Poʿalej Agudat Jisra'el , which was part of the elections of the Knesset in in 1955 , 1959 and 1973 .

In its first joint election, the electoral alliance received 4.7 percent of the vote and thus six seats in the Third Knesset . In the previous elections to the Second Knesset in 1951 , their percentage of the vote totaled 3.6 percent and thus five seats. Despite this success, the electoral alliance was not involved in the Seventh and Eighth governing coalitions . During the 3rd legislative term of the Knesset, the electoral alliance changed its name to Agudat Jisra'el - Poalei Agudat Jisra'el .

At the elections in 1959, the electoral alliance reappeared under the name Religious Torah Faithfulness Front and again achieved 4.7 percent of the vote and thus six seats in the Fourth Knesset . Due to differences of opinion, the electoral alliance split again into the two parties during the fourth legislative period, four Knesset mandates remained with Agudat Jisra'el and two with Poalei Agudat Jisra'el . For election 1961 , both parties stood separately.

In the 1973 elections , both parties reunited to form the Religious Torah Faithful Front . The electoral alliance received 3.8 percent of the vote and won five seats in the Eighth Knesset . The Religious Torah Faithful Front was the fourth largest faction in this election. The strongest faction was Ha-Maʿarach with 51 seats, followed by Likkud with 39 and the National Religious Party with 10 seats.

On December 14, 1976, the Religious Torah Faithfulness Front introduced a motion of no confidence in the Yitzchak Rabin government . The basis for the motion of no confidence was the clearance of newly delivered F-15s on December 11, 1976, which fell on a Sabbath . The motion of no confidence was also supported by the National Religious Party, which was involved in the government, which led to the dissolution of the governing coalition with the Ha-Maʿarach.
