Rabbi Meir Chadash
1898 CE–1989 CE · Acharonim · Jerusalem
Mashgiach and mussar educator in the Hebron Yeshiva and its successor in Jerusalem, Rabbi Meir Chadash was a central figure in transmitting the Slabodka mussar tradition to the yeshiva world in the Land of Israel. A talmid of Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel in Slabodka, he served for decades as mashgiach in Chevron Yeshiva, shaping generations of bnei torah through his vaadim and personal guidance. His teachings and letters, later collected by talmidim, continued to influence the Mussar-oriented Lithuanian yeshiva tradition after his passing.

Born in Paritch in 1898 to Rabbi Ben Tzion and Machla Chadash, he spent his early years in this small community of the Jewish "Lithuania" region. His parents raised him in a traditional home that enabled his subsequent entry into the Lithuanian yeshiva world. The town, today in Belarus, is identified in the sources as his birthplace and point of origin.
