Rav Eliezer Brandwein (Av 20, 5626 / 1866 - 158th Yahrzeit)

Rav Eliezer was born in Poland. He was a Chassidic leader, son of the Tzaddik Rav Yehuda Tzvi of Stretin (who was the foremost student of the famous Chassidic Rebbe, Rav Uri of Strelisk).

Rav Yehuda Tzvi of Stretin had four righteous sons, who he said were the incarnations of Dovid HaMelech’s warriors. He said about his son Eliezer, that he performed his spiritual work with a great degree of concealment and modesty that even fooled the Soton.

Like his father, Rav Eliezer davened and sang with tremendous joy. He showed a great deal of love toward all Jews, never displayed anger, and distributed great amounts of money to tzedoka. He was known as a man of miracles and wonders.

Rav Eliezer left behind two sons, Rav Nachum of Burstein and Rav Uri of Stanislav.
