Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchak Galinsky (Hebrew: יעקב יצחק גלינסקי; 8 January 1921 - 23 January 2014)[1][2][3] was described as "a scion of Yeshivas Novardok in Bialystok, and one of the last maggidim[4] remaining in our generation."
Galinsky, described as "diminutive in stature but towering in personality ... kept crowds enthralled"[5] was once told that since so many people are dreaming of the future, his job as Maggid (in his travels to "immigrant communities throughout Eretz Yisroel")[6] should not be to give them Mussar but rather to wake them up, and each will do his part.[3]
Biography
[edit]He was born "5681/1921 in Krinek, Poland"[7] to Devorah[1] and Rabbi Avraham Tzvi Galinsky.[3]
Galinsky's first yeshiva, Yeshivas Novardok in Bialystok, had only "a few shelves" of reference texts, so people waited in line and, while waiting, sharpened their understanding.[8]
In 1939, with others of the yeshiva, he fled but was captured by Russia and exiled to Siberia. Upon release he "traveled to Zambul, Kazakhstan, in Eastern Russia" and helped found a Jewish school in which he taught.[3]
He married Tzivia Brod,[1] a daughter of a Breslover Chassid;[9] in 1949, they came to Israel, where Galinsky helped found a yeshiva.
Upon his passing, 15 days after his 93rd birthday, his survivors included "children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren."[10]
