Nosson Nochum Englard

Wikipedia's first sentence called it “born in brooklyn”. Today it says “scion of radomsk and the rabbi of the radziner hassidim in jerusalem”. The one-line description Wikipedia serves to search engines and AI systems read “Rabbi Nosson Nochum Englard of Radzin-Yerushalayim with a group of Radziner Chassidim Grand Rabbi Avraham Yissachor Englard of Radzin with his eldest grandson Rabbi”. It now reads “American rabbi Grand Rabbi Avraham Yissachor Englard of Radzin with his eldest grandson, Rabbi”.

The opening as it read in 2015

His mother is a daughter of Rabbi Tzvi Hirsch Tewel , a prominent Rav and Rosh Yeshiva in Poland and in the USA. Rabbi Englard studied at Yeshivas Novominsk under the leadership of Grand Rabbi Yaakov Perlow of Novominsk.1 Until the present, Rabbi Englard remains a very close disciple of Rabbi Perlow.2 Rabbi Englard shared a very close and unique relationship with his grandfather, Grand Rabbi Avrohom Yissochor Englard, the previous Rebbe of Radzin, being that he was his oldest grandson. Rabbi Avrohom Yissochor spent much time teaching and learning with his grandson, training him in the ways of his great heritage. During the last years of Rabbi Avrohom Yissochor, Rav Nosson Nochum was appointed to guide and lead the young generation of Radziner chassidim in Yerushalayim. After the passing of his grandfather in 2005, Rabbi Englard was appointed to be Rav of the Radziner shtiebel and the Radziner chassidim in Yerushalayim. In 2009 he was also appointed to be the Rav of the new shtiebel in the Flatbush (Midwood\Marine Park) section of Brooklyn, NY. In addition to serving as Rav to the above mentioned communities, Rav Englard gives discourses in the deep and unique Torah of Izhbitza-Radzyn dynasty . These lectures are usually given in the Radziner shtiebel in Yerushalayim, although he travels to many yeshivos and communities throughout Israel and abroad with a goal to spread the unique and original light of Izhbitza-Radzin to Jews of many different and diverse backgrounds.3 Rav Englard is known to be able to relate to every single type of Jew on a personal and an individual level, and to imbue them with a greater connection to Hashem and a greater sense of belonging and contentment. Many see his great Ahavas Yisroel - love of every Jew - as being an emulation of his grandfather, the previous Radziner Rebbe. Hence, Rabbi Englard is well known to many from different sects and circles, and is known to have touched the lives of so many in many different ways.
