Biography[]
Simcha Zissel was born to Rabbi Chizkiyahu Avrohom in Jerusalem in the month of Adar 5672 (1912).
He was not in Chevron the day of the 1929 massacre.[3]
He died on April 21, 2000 (16 Nisan), the day before Shabbos Chol HaMoed Pesach (age 88). Despite religious prohibitions for eulogies during the holiday except for great scholars, "a huge throng estimated by police to be around 100,000, headed by Maran HaRav Yosef Sholom Eliashiv,"[3] did so Sunday morning, one of the intermediary days.
Eight years later he was described as "one of the great mussar educators of our generation."[5]
