The Tzaddik Rabbi Yehuda Horowitz of Djikov, known as Rav Yudaleh (1905-1989) was the son of Rabbi Alter Yechezkel Eliyahu Horowitz of Djikov, the son-in-law of the Ahavat Yisrael of Vizhnitz. He was a Rav and Admor of the Djikov-Ropshitz dynasty. He studied under Rabbi Meir Arik in Tarnov. At the age of 20, he received his Hora’ah Semicha by Rabbi Avraham Mendel Steinberg, the Rav of Brody and in 1936, was appointed Dayan in Klausenburg. After the war, immigrated to Jerusalem and served as a Mashpi’ah at the Dushinsky Yeshiva and as head of the famed Tarbitza Kollel.
His famed disciples include the Admor of Vizhnitz Shlita, the Admor of Toldot Avraham Yitzchak Shlita, Rabbi Yaakov Meir Shechter Shlita and many more.
Left deep glosses on almost every book of his library! Over the years, a team of talmidei Chachamim published the Gilyonei Mahari based on his writings. Passed away in Sivan 1989 and was laid to rest in London.
