Rav Leibush Hundert

Since 2004, Rav Leibush Hundert had been the Rabbi if the 'Ghetto Shul' in Montreal, Canada. The 'Ghetto Shul' is a popular grass roots center for students and young professional, making waves on campus at McGill University. He is an accomplished saxophone player, a known personality in the burgeoning online Jewish community, and a doctoral candidate in Chassidut. He was a student at Yeshivat Bat Ayin for four years. He lives in Montreal with his wife, Dina.

Leibush writes: I couldn’t have done this without Bat Ayin. It’s such a deep thing. On one hand, it’s just the basics of having learned Torah for three years. But, it’s also the conversations with people, applying what we learn to real life, and confronting for real what it means to pray, and what it means to serve Hashem. It wasn’t so much coming up with answers, but opening up a variety of struggles and possibilities. My time at Bat Ayin taught me to look deeply into the teachings of the full range of Torah and discover their amazing relevance on the most intimate personal level.
