On his mother’s side he was a descendant to the Rebbes of Beit Ruzhin-Buhush. He was ordained to the Rabbinate in his youth but refused to make use of it. A Torah great, he left behind many writings. He moved to Eretz Israel in 1922, was one of the settlers of Kfar Chasidim in Emek Zevulun. Following his father’s death in 1924 he moved to Jerusalem to take position as Rebbe.
