He traveled to Lomza at a young age, to the the Mahari"l Diskin's yeshivah. He later studied with the gaon Rabbi Chaim of Brisk. He was known as an exceptional gaon, expert in all aspects of Torah. He lived in Warsaw and refused to accept a rabbinical position. His library was one of the largest and most important in Poland. He ascended to the Land of Israel in 1927 and passed away on the 30th of Shevat, 1934. He was known for his magnum opus on Sefer HaMitzvot by Rasa"g, which he worked on for almost forty years, 14 of which, it is told, he did not leave his house, did not seeing daylight, and his meals were brought to him by his wife through a narrow window. He also used to listen to kaddish and kedushah through that same window. Rabbi Yosef Chaim Sonnenfeld said of this composition: 'It must be clearly understood that without the effort of forty consecutive years and incessant diligence, no human being would have been able to author such a work.'Moderate-fine condition.
