Boruch Greenfeld
Boruch Greenfeld, (1872–1956), was a rabbi and Torah scholar.

Born in Humenne, Slovakia (then Zemplén County, Kingdom of Hungary), Greenfield studied in Kisvárda under Moshe Greenwald. He married Rivkah Weinberger in 1891 in Stropkov where he founded a small yeshiva. Later he became the dayan (rabbinic judge) of Shebesh, Potneck, and Hermenshtat.

In 1923 he immigrated to the United States where he was a rabbi in several Pennsylvania cities and then in New York City, first in the Bronx and then the Lower East Side. In 1935 he moved to Palestine and became one of the leaders of the Edah HaChareidis.

He had five children that reached adulthood. The oldest, Mariam, her husband Nusen Baumhaft, and 14 of their 15 children were murdered in the Holocaust.
