The Admor Rabbi Yerucham Leiner of Radzin (1888-1964) was the son of Rabbi Avraham Yehoshua Heschel the Likkutei Divrei Torah, brother of the Admor Rabbi Gershon Hanoch Henich (the Sidrei Taharot) also known as the Baal HaTekhelet. His immense talents were evident and he even corresponded with the Gaon of Berezan, and even a tshuva to him appears in his book Shut Maharsham. His articles written out of astonishing genius were published in the periodicals of the period. He wrote books on the revealed and mystical Torah, “Notes on the Yerushalmi”, “Notes on the Zohar”, “the Gra, a Man of Nigla and Nistar”, and “Zikaron LaRishonim.”
