Early life
Rozovsky was born in Grodno, where his father Michel Dovid Rozovsky was the chief rabbi. His mother Sara Pearl was the daughter of Avraham Gelburd, the previous rabbi of Grodno.
He studied at the local Sha’ar Hatorah Yeshiva and was student of Shimon Shkop. He also studied with Yisroel Zev Gustman.
In 1935, after the death of his father, to escape being drafted into the Soviet Red Army Rozovsky fled to British-ruled Palestine, where he studied in the Lomzha Yeshivah in Petach Tikvah, married the daughter of Tzvi Pesach Frank (Chief Rabbi of Jerusalem) and taught in the Lomzha Yeshiva.
