Benjamin Halevy (Hebrew: בנימין הלוי, 6 May 1910 – 7 August 1996) was an Israeli judge and politician.
Halevy was born Ernst Levi in Weissenfels, Germany[1] and educated at the Universities of Freiburg, Göttingen and Berlin.
He immigrated to what was then British Mandatory Palestine in 1933 after Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany, and studied at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
Halevy allowed the scope of the trial to be expanded and ruled that Kastner had indeed, in his words, "sold his soul to the devil."
In the 1977 elections, he was returned to the Knesset on Dash's list, but the party split up after a year, and Halevy joined the Democratic Movement, before leaving to again sit as an independent.
