Ilan Daniel Feldman is an American Orthodox Jewish rabbi, [2] public speaker and author. Since 1991 he has been the senior rabbi and spiritual leader of Congregation Beth Jacob of Atlanta, Georgia, succeeding his father, Emanuel Feldman, who founded and led the congregation for 39 years. [3]
The first kollel – in the modern sense of the term – in the Jewish diaspora was the Kovno Kollel ("Kolel Perushim" [2]) founded in Kovno (Kaunas, Lithuania) in 1877. [3] [4] It was founded by Rabbi Yisrael Salanter [5] and directed by Rabbi Isaac Blaser.
Because of the influence and activity of Beth Jacob in the Jewish life of Atlanta, a large number of Jews moved into the area along LaVista Road. Eventually, this led to the establishment of five other Jewish congregations nearby as well as an Orthodox high school for girls (Temima) and Yeshiva Ohr Yisrael, an Orthodox high school for boys.

Another major accomplishment of Rabbi Neuberger was gathering married bachurim (young yeshiva-men) learning in Kollel Avodas Levi, and sending them out to open outreach kollelim around the country. Today there are kollelim in many cities including Atlanta, Georgia; Phoenix, Arizona; and Columbus and Cincinnati in Ohio.
Financial constraints necessitated that Yosef leave the kollel and work in the secular world. Yosef started working as a trading assistant at Lehman Brothers in New York City. Then Yosef took a job at Southern Energy, due to which the Hendler family moved to Atlanta. Some years later, the Hendlers moved to Monsey.
