Yisroel Eliyahu Weintraub

The leader of the Lithuanian yeshiva world, Rabbi Elazar Menachem Shach, encouraged many people to flock to him for his advice on various matters of life.

As a student of Hutner, Weintraub also developed views on Jewish philosophy, especially following the methodology of Rabbi Judah Loew ben Bezalel (The Maharal).

[2] Weintraub briefly served as Mashgiach of Yeshiva Rabbi Chaim Berlin before emigrating to Israel in the early 1960s.

[6] In 1967, after the Six-Day War, Weintraub penned – at the behest of Rabbi Shach – a pamphlet to explain to perplexed Jews the spiritual meaning of the Israeli victory.

[7] He explained that it was foretold that at the end of the exile, the Erev Rav (including Amalek) will be among the leaders of the Jewish People.
