biography

Born in Riga, Latvia to Deborah and Bezalel Yaakov, who was close to Rabbi Avraham Yitzhak Hacohen Kook while living in Boisk. In the year 1934, his family immigrated to Israel and settled in Tel Aviv, where his father founded a candy factory called "TZED" (acronym for Zalel Davlitsky).  In Age 13, he began studying with Rabbi Yechiel Israelov in the synagogue. When he was about 15 years old, his family moved to Jerusalem, where he began studying at the Kamnitz Yeshiva and the Hebron Yeshiva. He approached Rabbi David Baharan and Rabbi Ya'akov Moshe Haralp (חרל"פ).

 was a spritual student Ha"gera of  Vilna  (Vilnius) , as is customary and meticulous. In addition, Rabbi Dublitzky also studied with Kabbalists members of the Eastern Testimony in Jerusalem: Rabbi Mordechai Sharabi, Rabbi Ovadia Hadaya, and Rabbi Mordechai Attia.

In the seventh year, he was married to Haya (the fifth died), the daughter of Rabbi Chaim Ozer Yanovsky, rabbi of the Vineyard Association. He lived in Tel Aviv and later moved to Ramat Gan, where he studied at the "Yeshivat Slonim" which he founded and headed by Rabbi Yagel. He began to approach Rabbi Avraham Yeshayahu Karlitz  and used to pray every day the Vatikin prayer in his house quorum.

When he was about 27, he moved to Bnei Brak. In the year 1957, he established a regular quorum for the morning prayers of the morning hawkish during the apparently hot hawk. Since his death he has published about sixty books in a wide range of subjects. His books have been circulated in the religious and ultra-Orthodox public, and he is considered an authority in the fields of Kabbalah, customs, traditional Hebrew grammar, Halachot. Mourning and the Torah theory. His consents are based on many contemporary Torah books.

To Rabbi Dublitzky a son and two daughters. His son, David, compiled some of the first books of Ashkenaz: the Rabbi, the Rabbinate, and Gates of Dura.

In his last years he had a serious illness. He died on Saturday night on Father's Day, at the age of 92. He was buried in Kiryat Shaul Cemetery, near his wife

Rabbi Deblitzky used many unique behaviors that, contrary to the usual practice of reading from relatively later books such as the Shulchan Aruch, Rabbi Deblitzky used to find out the halakha from its primary sources - Bible, Mishnah and Talmud. An example of this is his refraining from eating the "next door" in Kisnin, because the amount to which some of the arbiters must be blessed is three, the same as other opinions already require in the food blessing. Because if he eats a small amount, he would doubtful to bless a Creator's Blessing or a Blessing of Three, and if he would eat a large amount would like to greet a Blessing of the Three or the Blessing of Food, he would avoid eating any kind of baked goods of this kind, except at the dinner where he ate a meal. The kinds of foods are getting rid of the food blessing on the mouth.

Another unique custom was to pray at dawn just in time for the actual hot hawk. Many people started to act like this (see references to some of these behaviors in the "Books and Writers" forum).

His other leadership is to almost completely cut his beard. This was done according to his Kabbalistic interpretation, though Rabbi Davlitsky would instruct his students not to

Rabbi Davlitsky used to cast a light blue thread (argon-blunt thorns) in his tassels in the small but not large tallit garment. It was customary to put on tefillin throughout the day.

Rabbi Deblitzky would make sure that the wording of the prayer would not be a lie. For example, the unique song for Sunday would say "And we are on pure land" instead of "unclean land" because it is in Eretz Yisrael, and a vent universe replaces the words "pretty Babylon" with "pretty much every site" because today there are no wise students in Babylon

After the Six Day War, he wanted to make a Thanksgiving day, which would be expressed in saying Hillel and setting a mitzvah, but he finally reiterated that things were right for their time

Following the Knesset's approval, in March 2014, of the amendment to the Security Service Law, which dealt with recruiting members of the IDF, welcomed the name and the kingdom of the blessing of "Baruch Dayan Emet".

 

May the merit of Rabbi Saraya Devlitzki (Dvelaitzki) protect us all. Amen
