Rabbi Benzion Shemtov, Father
of Detroit Religious Leader
Rabbi Bension Shemtov,
father of Rabbi Berel Shem-
tov, executive director of
Michigan Lubavitch, and
and international emissary
of the Lubavitcher Rebbe,
died June 14 in Israel. Rep-
resentatives of all Lubavitch
institutions in Israel at-
tended the funeral.
Rabbi Shemtov was born
in 1901 near Vilna, Russia.
Before his Bar Mitzva he en-
rolled in the Hasidic yeshiva
in the town of Lubavitch. In
his early 20's he helped or-
ganize hedorim, Talmud
Torahs, Mikvot and helped
establish underground cen-
ters for Jewish education in
Soviet Russia.
He was a member of the
"blood-covenant minyan," a
group of 10 Hasidim who
swore to the previous Lu-
bavitcher Rebbe that they
would continue promoting
Torah Judaism in commun-
ist-held territories.
In 1927, following his en-
gagement to Esther Golda
Futerfass, he was arrested
by the Soviet authorities
and sent to prison-camp in
Siberia — his wedding
taking place inside the
prison in 1930. After six
years' imprisonment,
Rabbi Shemtov esta-
blished a yeshiva in Paris.
In 1948 he was sent by the
Rebbe to London, England,
where he started a heder.
He traveled all over Britain
and laid the groundwork for
Lubavitch institutions
throughout the United
Kingdom.
Rabbi Shemtov later
moved to the world center of
Lubavitch in New York and
became an emissary of the
RABBI SHEMTOV
Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi
Menachem M. Schneerson.
