Rabbi Aryeh Leib Malin
1906 CE–1962 CE · Modern · New York
A leading mussar-oriented rosh yeshiva of the Mir tradition, Rabbi Aryeh Leib Malin was a Polish-born Talmudist who helped guide the Mir yeshiva through its wartime exile in East Asia before settling in the United States. In Brooklyn he co-founded and led Yeshivas Beis HaTalmud, conceived as a continuation of the pre-war Lithuanian yeshiva world in the style of Volozhin, Slabodka, and Mir. His posthumously published sefer Chidushei Rebbi Aryeh Leib reflects his analytic approach to Shas and preserves his shiurim and chiddushim.

What they did here
Born in Białystok in 1906, he grew up in a home steeped in rabbinic life. His father, Rabbi Avraham Moshe, served as a dayan in the nearby town of Mileitzitz, providing him with an early environment of halachic discourse. The family’s connection to the Grodno region later facilitated his entry into elite Lithuanian yeshivos.
About Bialystok
Bialystok was a major Lithuanian-Polish Jewish center on the seam between Litvish and Hasidic worlds. R. Chaim Halberstam (Sanz dynasty) and R. Chaim Soloveitchik both had students teaching here. The city was 70% Jewish in 1900 (41,000 Jews); the community was annihilated in the Bialystok Ghetto uprising of August 1943.
