Rabbinic leader, rabbi of Elizabeth, N. J. “In 1953 he founded Daf Hashavua, a weekly radio broadcast of Talmud that continued until 1988. Tapes of the broadcasts were aired in other cities in the U. S. And Canada, and reached the U. S. S. R. On Kol Zion la-Golah. He also pioneered the use of long-playing records to teach Talmud with Bas Kol. He was active in Va'ad Hazzalah, trying to rescue Jews during the Holocaust, spending two months in London and Paris in 1945 helping refugees. Beginning in 1944 he urged the American Jewish community to forge ties with Jews in the U. S. S. R. In 1964 he and his wife made the first of 22 trips to the Soviet Union. He raised money privately to bring physical and religious necessities to Jews behind the Iron Curtain, including special siddurim that would enable a Jew in Russia to learn to read Hebrew and to observe mitzvot. He obtained permission to bring in tefillin as long as one side would be transparent. He taught Rabbi Eliyahu Essas and worked with him and others to preserve cemeteries and restore the graves of great scholars. He was treasurer of Ezras Torah for over 30 years and co-founder in 1980 of Merkaz Harabbanim, an effort to move young rabbinic couples out of the yeshivah and into the communities that needed them. His son, Rabbi Elazar Mayer Teitz, succeeded him as rabbi of the kehillah in Elizabeth. ” - EJ 2008. Subjects: Haggada shel Pesah. Russian. Elizabeth, N. J. Haggadot - Texts.
