Biography


Rabbi Moshe Biderman was born into abject poverty in Łachów, Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, Poland in 1776. His father, Rabbi Dovid Biderman was the founder of the Lelov Hassidic dynasty. After his first wife died, Rabbi Moshe married Rivka Rochel, the daughter of Rabbi Yaakov Yitzchak Rabinowicz. After the death of his father and his father-in-law, Rabbi Moshe Biderman along with his friend Rabbi Israel Yitzhak Kalish of Vurka became a disciple of Rabbi Simcha Bunim of Peshischa. In 1847, Rabbi Kalish died and Rabbi Biderman, finally, agreed to accept a leadership position and became the Rabbi of Przedborz. Shortly before Rabbi Biderman's death, he decided to leave Poland and immigrate to Eretz Yisroel. 72 days after arriving in Jerusalem, he died on December 18, 1851, and was buried on Mount of Olives near the tomb of the prophet Zacharia.
