Harav Binyamin Wolf Lev (1777-1851), Av Beis Din of Verbov and author of Shaarei Torah, was the son of the Shemen Rokeach. An extraordinary genius admired by all the great rabbinim of his times as attested in the approbations to his Sefer Shaarei torah ( Vienna, 1821) in which he is praised effusively by the great sages including Rabbi Akiva Eiger, the Chasam Sofer, Maharam Bennet, Rabbi Yakov miLisah (Chavas Daas- Nesivos haMishpat) Rabbi Efraim Zalman Margolius (Beis Efraim) and others, authored many sefarim and is renowned for his masterpiece sefer Shaarei Torah in which he comprehensively discusses and analysis fundamental Talmudic concepts .
