Rabbi Shlomo Chaim haKohen Aviner is the Rosh yeshiva of the Ateret Cohanim yeshiva in the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem and the rabbi of Bet El. He is considered one of the spiritual leaders of the Religious Zionist movement.
Rabbi Aviner was born in 1943 in Lyon, France, and was involved in the Bnei Akiva youth movement, rising to the position of National Director. Rabbi Aviner is a qualified electrical engineer and holds an MA in mathematics.
When he emigrated to Israel in 1966, he settled on Sde Eliyahu, a kibbutz in the northern Jordan valley near Bet She'an. He subsequently went to learn in the Mercaz HaRav yeshiva in Jerusalem, under Rabbi Zvi Yehuda Kook. Later, he became the rabbi of Lavi and afterwards the rabbi of Keshet in the Golan Heights. Since 1981 he has been the rabbi of Bet El. He served in the IDF and is a lieutenant in the reserves.
Rabbi Aviner became controversial with a few decisions concerning intimate matters that were questioned of him and some rabbis warned about him deciding in these issues.
In 2005, prior to the forced eviction of Jews from Gush Katif as part of Israel unilateral disengagement plan, Aviner took a minority rabbinical stance that soldiers should not refuse orders due to the religious issue being of the state's responsibility, not the individual. Later, he continued with more attempts to demorilize the resistance to the eviction plan and in one case was seen to take physical action.
