Mansour was born in 1968. He then went to Israel where he studied at Mercaz HaTorah. Upon returning home he continued to learn in various places including Ateret Torah in Brooklyn, and the Bet Midrash Gavoha in Lakewood. He then joined the Keter Sion Kollel to learn under the guidance of Rabbi Max Maslaton. He received simichah in 1998. Rabbi Mansour currently serves as Rabbi to a congregation known as Bet Yaakob. The Congregation is temporarily currently housed on Ocean Parkway in Brooklyn New York. The Synagogue will relocate B"H in September 2014 to a new permanent location on Ocean Parkway and shall be renamed The Edmond J Safra Synagogue.
