Leopold Hoffman Cohn-Jewish Rabbi Turned Messianic Jew: 1862-1937



Leopold Hoffman Cohn (1862, Berezna, Hungary-December 19, 1937, Brooklyn, NY)


pjmiller has posted the awe inspiring testimony of a Jewish Rabbi turned Messianic Jew by the name of Leopold Cohn D.D. who lived from 1867 to 1939 and who endured the trials and tribulations compared to the Apostle Paul for the Messiah Yeshua whom he searched for with all of his heart, and found; and loved with all of his heart. I promise you, you will be most blessed upon reading this servant's life testimony.

Life began for Leopold Cohn in the little town of Berezna, in the eastern part of Hungary. At the age of seven a great calamity befell the young lad; he lost both of his parents in the same year and was left to shift as well as he could for himself. In later years he often recalled how those days of terrible loneliness and bitter struggle for existence taught him to trust in God with all of his heart. It seems natural, then, to find young Cohn, after his confirmation at the age of thirteen, determined to enter upon a course of study with a view to becoming eventually a Rabbi and leader among his people. That he gave good account of himself as a student we conclude from the fact that at the age of eighteen, he graduated from the Talmudical academies with a record of high scholarship and with commendations as a worthy teacher of the Law. continued
