A 'peace loving and devout' father of six was among the four rabbis slaughtered in a dawn attack by Palestinian cousins at a Jerusalem synagogue today.
Rabbi Avraham Shmuel Goldberg, a 68-year-old described as a 'pillar of the community', was born in Liverpool and held a dual British-Israeli passport.
His cousin Michelle Hirschfield this afternoon described Mr Goldberg as a 'peacemaker' and a 'generous, family man' adding that that he had worked in London before moving to live in Israel with his family in search of a quiet life.
