21 Kislev - Rav Tzvi Pesach Frank - 1960

On this day in 1960, Rav Tzvi Pesach Frank passed away. Born in Kovno, Lithuania, in 1873, he was raised in a family of Torah scholars and exhibited exceptional learning from a young age. His early education included exposure to renowned figures such as Rav Yisrael Salanter and Rav Yitzchak Elchanan Spector. In 1892, his father sent him and his brother to Israel to avoid conscription into the Russian army. Settling in Jerusalem, Rav Tzvi Pesach immersed himself in Torah study. He later joined the Jerusalem Beis Din in 1907, where he served as a judge for over 50 years. His dedication to Jewish law and the Jewish people, even during the hardships of World War I, exemplified his unwavering commitment to Torah and leadership. In the years following World War I, Rav Tzvi Pesach played a crucial role in guiding Jewish life in Israel. He supported the establishment of agricultural settlements aligned with halachic principles and advocated for greater awareness of the laws pertaining to the land. As head of the Jerusalem Beis Din from 1918, he helped shape policies for the growing Jewish community, including encouraging the relocation of prominent yeshivas of Europe such as Slobodka and Slutzk to Israel. His commitment to sanctifying Shabbos led him to petition the British Mandate authorities to minimize public desecration, reflecting his deep concern for preserving the sanctity of Jerusalem. During World War II and the subsequent formation of the modern State of Israel, Rav Tzvi Pesach emerged as a leading authority of Jewish Law, addressing complex issues in technology, medicine, and industry. His halachic expertise covered topics as diverse as powdered eggs and hydroponics, demonstrating his adaptability to modern challenges while remaining rooted in Torah values. Rav Tzvi Pesach’s legacy as a Judge, authority of Jewish Law, and leader of the Jewish people continues to inspire, reflecting his lifelong devotion to guiding Jewish life through halacha and faith.
