Harav (Rabbi) David Solomon Eibeschutz (Hebrew: דוד שלמה אייבשיץ) (alternate English spelling: David Shlomo Eibeschitz; Russian version: Ivshitz) was an 18th-century rabbi, Kabbalist and author. He was born in 1755 to a simple family most likely in the village of Jezierzany (Ukrainian: Ozeriany,Озеряни)in Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine (in Poland until 1939.) There is some doubt as to his birthplace. There is an Ozeriany, Borshchiv Raion [Озеряни] (Борщівський район) and Ozeriany, Buchach Raion [Озеряни] (Бучацький район)and both are in Ternopil Oblast, Ukraine; it is unclear which of the two villages were his birthplace. Nonetheless, the area’s acceptance of Jews was tentative. From 1717 to 1764, during the period when Rabbi Dovid Shlomo was born, a unit of infantry would be positioned in the town in the winter months; it was assumed that the fear of pogroms deterred Jews from settling in the town itself.
