Zechariah Elefant

Zechariah Elefant (Yiddish: זכריהו עלעפאנט, Hebrew: זכריהו אלפנט, Hungarian: Elefánt Zoltan, English: Sol Elefant; February 11, 1886, Kárász, Hungary - June 1957, New York City) was a rabbi, author, publisher, and book salesman.

His father was Rabbi Dov Berish Elefant, and his mother was named Bava (née Eisenberger).

A few years before the World War I, he married Sarah (née Kahane), a Polish citizen.

Later he opened a bookstore on Canal Street in Manhattan's Lower East Side, where he sold "rare manuscripts and published works"[1] as well as Torah scrolls.

After the death of his father, he published another book, "Ein Habadolach on the Talmud", in 1944.
