Meet Bob Barocas

Bob Barocas

Bob Barocas (Rachmiel David Barocas) is the author of Legacy of Light: Revealing the Torah’s Eternal Relevance. He regularly gives a hashkafa shiur to the Edison Chabura and is a highly acclaimed speaker, writer, financial coach, proud husband, and father of three.

He studied at Machon Yaakov in Jerusalem under Rav Beryl Gershenfeld and continued his learning at the Edison Chabura in Highland Park, NJ. These foundational years shaped his Slobodka-style hashkafa and love for mussar. Whether delving into a sugya in Shas or a perush on Chumash, Bob strives to unearth deeply inspiring and life-altering messages in everything he learns and passionately share them with others.

Bob holds a Juris Doctorate (JD) from Rutgers Law School and a Bachelor of Arts (BA) from Rutgers University, where he graduated summa cum laude with Highest Departmental Honors in both of his majors (philosophy and political science).

He lives in Highland Park, NJ with his wife and children.
