He was a student of Rabb iYisrael Salanter in Kovna. In addition he was the manager of the Prushim Kollel under Rabbi Yitzhak Elchanan in 1880, until he left in 1881 following a machloket over mussar. He edited the journal “Tevuna” of the mussar movement. He was a founder of the mussar yeshiva in Slobodka, and he moved to Chlem in place of Rabbi Simcha Zissel Ziv. His method in mussar was to encourage enthusiasm and admiration rather than intellectual exegesis. He authored Or Yisrael, a composition on clarifying the mussar method, and more. He moved to Jerusalem in 1904 and served as head of the Vilna Kollel, and more. His son-in-law was Rabbi Eliyahu Abest of Moscow.
