Across the spectrum: Moshe Shmuel Glasner

Rabbi Moshe Shmuel Glasner (1856–1924), a prominent Hungarian Talmudic scholar and communal leader, served as chief rabbi of Klausenburg (Cluj) from 1877 to 1923. In 1923 he left Klausenburg for Jerusalem where he resided until his death in 1924. He is best known as the author of Dor Revi'i, a classic commentary on the tractate Hullin, and as a supporter of Zionism and a founder of Mizrachi. (Wiki)
