Dov Lando (born 5 April 1930) is the rosh yeshiva of the Slabodka yeshiva[1] of Bnei Brak along with Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch, a rabbi of Chug Chazon Ish, and a member of the directorate of the Board of Yeshivas.[2][3][4] In his youth, he studied under Avrohom Yeshaya Karelitz as well as at the yeshivot of Ponevezh and Hebron.[5]
With the death of Rav Gershon Edelstein, he became the chairman of the council of sages in Israel along with his colleague Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch.
Views
An anti-Zionist, Lando has characterized Zionism as "a movement whose purpose is to establish the Jewish people on an explicitly secular foundation, rooted in heresy and rebellion against divine sovereignty." He has written that involvement in Zionist institutions such as the World Zionist Organization leads to the "desecration of God's name."[6]
