The Gaon Rabbi Meir Posner (1725-1807) one of the greatest Poskim and Meshivim of his generation, author of Sefer Beis Meir on the four parts of the Shulchan Aruch and Shitos HaShas, Av Beis Din of Mezeritch, Konigsberg and Shotland. In the approbation of the Gaon of Lvov Rabbi Yosef Shaul Nathanson for Sefer Beis Meir (Lvov, 1861) he writes with much appreciation that this Sefer "lives up to its name since it is enlightening … delving into the depths of the Shas … and I can almost say that it is unequalled among the entire commentators of the Shulchan Aruch…".

Later, he studied at the Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim of Lubavitch and became a Chassid of the Admor the Rashab. Was Rav Moreh Hora’ah in Horodok and Beutika. In 1929, he immigrated to the USA and became a Ram and Moreh Hora’ah in Brooklyn. For twenty years served as a member of the rabbinic Hasmacha committee of the central Yeshivas Tomchei Temimim.  Immigrated to Jerusalem in 1960, where he renewed his ties to the Admor of Slonim and even donated this Sefer to the Yeshiva of his Chassidim, Beis Avraham. Was the uncle of Rabbi Nissim Karlitz.
