Remembering Rabbi Yehuda Herzl Henkin, zt”l By Pearl Markovitz | January 13, 2021
On the ninth of Tevet, December 24, 2020, the Jewish community suffered yet another great loss in the passing of Rav Yehuda Herzl Henkin zt”l, in Yerushalayim at the age of 75. He was the grandson of the illustrious Rav Yosef Eliyahu Henkin zt”l, one of the foremost poskim of the 20th century, from whom he received one of his two semichas. Rav Yehuda Henkin was aptly compared to his namesake, Yehuda son of Yaakov Avinu, whose fearlessness and forthrightness in the name of truth was peerless. Working in tandem with his illustrious wife, Rabbanit Chana Lazarus Henkin, in establishing Nishmat, the world-renowned Torah institute for women, Henkin blazed new trails in women’s learning and community involvement, always keeping within the strict parameters of Halacha.
