He was rabbi of Bnei Ram (where he served for 25 years), and when he started he expressed that as long as he served there as a rabbi, no one would die in his youth, and IDF soldiers from the Moshav who fought at the front in the Yom Kippur War all returned alive. He was also Ra’avad of Badatz Machzikei HaDat Belz, and Beit Midrash Belz in Ramat Elchanan, Bnei Brak. He wrote Netzach Yeshaya.
