Yitzchok Sorotzkin

Avrohom Yitzchok Sorotzkin is a prolific writer and former Rosh Yeshiva of Telshe yeshiva. He currently delivers the most advanced Talmudic lecture at the Mesivta of Lakewood. Rabbi Sorotzkin is widely recognized as a Gadol and leader of American Orthodox Jewry.

Sorotzkin is the son of Rabbi Baruch Sorotzkin, a Rosh Yeshiva in Telshe Yeshiva whose position he inherited. Due to controversy concerning the leadership of the Telshe Yeshiva in Cleveland, Sorotzkin relocated to Lakewood, NJ.[1][2] There he continues to teach students and publish his works.

Sorotzkin, in addition to having studied under his father, is also a student of Rabbi Berel Soloveitchik.

Sorotzkin is the son-in-law of the late Rabbi Yecheskel Grubner, Chief Rabbi of Detroit.[3] Sorotzkin is also recognized world-wide as a lecturer and had delivered many keynote addresses and guest lectures.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
