Meet Rabbi Tzvi (Hilton) Wainstein
This page is dedicated to the memory of our school friend – Saul Neutel z”l
Rabbi Tzvi (Hilton) Wainstein made aliyah from Johannesburg, South Africa in 1979 upon completion of his high-school studies at King David High School, Victory Park. He studied at the Ohr Sameach Seminary and then at Netzach Yisrael under the “modern Talmudic genius” of Harav Gustman z”l, a senior Rabbinic leader originally from Vilna. Under Harav Shternbuch, Rabbi Wainstein received his rabbinical ordination and then a teacher’s diploma and B.Ed. Rabbi Wainstein also participated in editing 11 volumes of Artscroll Gemarah. Rabbi Wainstein now prepares advanced students for “Semichah” (Rabbinical ordination), and is a senior lecturer and head of recruiting for a post high school program called “Derech”.
His vision: I would like to see the Jewish values of new immigrants, their sense of belonging and Jewish identities growing stronger here in Israel.
