In his youth studied, among others, under Rabbi Zusha of Anapoli. WAs a modest and humble man. Hence, after his father's passing, the Chassidim refused to accept him as their leader until the Chozeh of Lublin realized his greatness and appointed him as his father's successor in leading the Kozhnitz Chassidut.  Rabbi Moshe Elyakim Bri'ah served as Maggid Meisharim in Kozhnitz and Ostrovtza. By his first marriage he was the son-in-law of Rabbi Yehuda Leib Hacohen of Anipoli author of the Or Haganuz and by his second, of Rabbi Elazar of Lizhensk, the son of the Noam Elimelech. In his many books - including Be'er Moshe, Binat Moshe, Da'at Moshe, Vayachel Moshe, Mateh Moshe and Tefillat Moshe - he introduces tradiitons and Shemu'ot he had received from his father the Maggid of Kozhnitz and from the leading disciples of the Baal Shem Tov.
