Reb Leizer - The life and legacy of Rabbi Eliezer Geldzahler

Reb Leizer ... The man of dreams

He was at once intellectual and blazingly fervent, charismatic and unassuming, demanding and tolerant, serious and funny. He was unconventional and, while always appropriate ... unpredictable. Heir to his grandfather s Kelm mussar and a product of a Brisker education, he also internalized the light and depth of chassidus, fusing many holy paths within his vast heart.

Reb Leizer built a world-class yeshivah while still a young man, opening up a new world to chassidishe bachurim that offered them the penetrating lomdus of the yeshivah world while fiercely safeguarding their mesorah. He challenged them to grow and made their spirits soar, but most important of all ... he gave them dreams.
