1754 CE–1826 CE · Acharonim · Kojetein
Rabbi Elazar Fleckeles (1754-1826) was a Bohemian halachic authority and preacher active in Prague, where he was born and where he died. After early study with Meir Fischels, he became a close disciple of Rabbi Yechezkel Landau, the Noda BiYehudah, absorbing the analytic method of Prague's rabbinical court. In 1779 he took up the rabbinate of Kojetein in Moravia, returning to Prague in 1783 to sit as a dayan under Landau and to head a yeshiva. From 1801 he presided over the city's rabbinical court until his death. He is best remembered for the three-volume responsa collection Teshuvah MeAhavah, and for his sermons, gathered in Olat Chodesh and in Chazon LaMo'ed. He devoted particular effort to countering the lingering Sabbatian and Frankist movements of his day.
