Marrying a Soloveitchik
Mazaltov!
My nephew, Gedaliah Kestenbaum married Devori Soloveitchik in Jerusalem
last week.
Gedaliah has married into rabbinical aristocracy.
Devori is the daughter of Rabbi Yitzchak Zev Soloveitchik, and the grand-daughter of Rabbi Meshulam Dovid (Reb Dovid) Soloveitchik, who is Rosh Yeshiva of Yeshivat Brisk (one of the two) in Jerusalem.
The Soloveitchik's are a rabbinical dynasty descended from Rabbi Yosef Dov (HaLevi) Soloveitchik (The "Beis Halevi") and his son Rabbi Chaim Soloveitchik ("Reb Chaim Brisker").
Rav Chaim's sons Rabbi Yitzchak Zev (Reb Velvel) Soloveitchik ("The GRIZ" The Brisker Rov) and Rabbi Moshe Soloveitchik seem to have gone in different hashkafik directions. Whereas Reb Velvel's descendents are predominantly right wing hareidim, Rav Moshe's branch are leaders in the Modern Orthodox/National Religious hashkafa – most notably Rav Joseph Ber Soloveitchik ("The Rav") and Rav Aaron Soloveichik.
Rav Aha…
