Yitzhak Kaduri

ortodox zsidó rabbi

Yitzhak Kaduri was a prominent Israeli Haredi rabbi and kabbalist, born around 1898. He was known for his expertise in Jewish mysticism, particularly in the teachings of the Rashash, whose kavanot he taught and practiced. As a respected figure in his community, Kaduri's influence extended beyond the realm of spiritual guidance, with his opinions and actions carrying significant weight.

Throughout his life, Kaduri remained committed to his faith and traditions, yet his involvement in secular affairs was notable. In the 1996 Israeli election, his amulets were distributed to voters in exchange for their support of Benjamin Netanyahu and the Shas party. Despite his stature as a spiritual leader, Kaduri did not publish any religious articles or books during his lifetime, which spanned until his passing in 2006. His legacy as a devoted rabbi and kabbalist continues to be remembered within the Jewish community.
