The Genius Rabbi Chaim Ze'ev Finkel [1904-1965] grandson of the "grandfather of Slabodka" Rabbi Nathan Zvi Finkel. At age 9, there was a child paralysis. The doctors were desperate to heal and even his great-uncle Rabbi Avraham Zvi Kamai, who was a pharmacist, tried to heal him, but to no avail. His father removed his savings and printed a special edition of the book "Kzot Hachoshen" as a virtue of his medicine and miraculously he was healed and returned to his studies in the Talmud Torah.
He studied at Mir until 1922, and then traveled to Brisk to receive the Briskian way of teaching from the Gri'z Soloveitchik. In 1926, he immigrated to Eretz Yisrael and spent time with his great grandfather "Grandfather from Slabodka" in Hebron. He later became the head of the Heychal HaTalmud Yeshiva in Tel Aviv, and later served as Mashgiach and spiritual director at the Mir Yeshiva until his death. His wife Leah died when she was young, in 1957. Later, he remarried to Gital Shmuelevitz, the sister of his brother-in-law, Rabbi Chaim Shmuelevich.
