Sar HaTorah-The Tchebiner Rav
Hagaon Harav Dov Berish Weidenfeld, ztvk"l. As one of the few scions of a generation replete with spiritual giants, tzaddikim whose souls ascended to Shamayim in the inferno of the Holocaust, the Tchebiner Rav was the undisputed gadol hador of the past generation, accepted and beloved by all sectors of Orthodox Jewry. A paragon of Torah and halachah, emes and chessed, he miraculously escaped the burning soil of Europe and barely survived the war years in Siberia before making his way to Eretz Hakodesh. There he taught Torah and chassidus to the masses, engaged in prolific acts of tzedakah and chessed, brought solace to so many shattered survivors, and founded the hailed Yeshivas Kochav MiYaakov-Tchebin in Yerushalayim. Melding Torah and history, this sefer transplants readers to pre-World War II Europe and introduces them to some of the greatest Torah sages of the past generation, including the Kochav MiYaakov, the Chazon Nachum, the Beis Yitzchak, and Harav Menachem Ziemba,
