In 1826 he was appointed Av Beth Din of Prostějov (Prossnitz), where he became widely renowned for both his scholarship and communal leadership. Following the passing of Rabbi Mordechai Benet in 1829, he succeeded him as Av Beth Din of Nikolsburg, one of the most prestigious rabbinic positions in Central Europe. While visiting his native Prague in 1842, he died suddenly and was accorded an honorable burial there. He is best known as the author of Kovetz al Yad on Maimonides, Shalom Yerushalayim on the Jerusalem Talmud, and the recently published Responsa of Rabbi Nachum Trebitsch.
