Eli Mansour

Eli J. Mansour (born 1968) is a synagogue rabbi whose ongoing lectures[1] and writings are circulated beyond his Brooklyn-located Edmond J Safra Synagogue location. Although he is a sephardic rabbi whose photos show him without a beard, he has a following within the Orthodox Ashkenazic community.[2][3]

The Edmond J Safra Synagogue

Within the synagogue Mansour "gives daily classes in mishnah, gemara, halachah, torah, neviim, and a variety of subjects relevant to the orthodox community,"[4] including a Daf Yomi.[5]

Every issue of Community Magazine features a multi-page article authored by him.[6]

Education

Following primary education[7] Mansour studied at Mercaz HaTorah in Israel and then, upon returning to the US, he learned at Yeshiva Ateret Torah (Brooklyn), and then Bet Midrash Gavoha in Lakewood.[5]

Mansour then joined Keter Tzion Kollel, learning under the guidance of Rabbi Max Maslaton, receiving Smichah in 1998.[8]

Lectures

Beyond those lectures given within his synagogue, Mansour participates in programs hosted elsewhere,[3][2] including specialized women's programs.[9][10] He also speaks at specialized outreach programs,[11][12] and "is also a featured speaker on the Aish HaTorah website."[13]
