He was born to Rabbi Yaakov Weidenfeld, rabbi of the Remailiv and author of the Kochav Yaakov responsa. , Which we examined for three days in a row in Shas and Poskim. In 1896, he married the daughter of Rabbi Avraham Poker Mias [1] in Taba. Larger throughout Poland (including Lodz) but refused because he preferred to serve in a quiet city, where he would not be bothered to go to events.

During his first years in the rabbinate, his rabbi, Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Halberstam of Shinova, had already instructed him to decide the question in the laws of anchoring. Thanks to this answer he became famous and was considered an authority bar especially in this field. Apart from his Torah greatness, he was active in matters of strengthening religion and was a frequent speaker at rabbinical assemblies in Galicia. In 1907, he was sent to Eretz Israel as a representative of the rabbis of Galicia to closely monitor operations including Galicia, where irregularities were discovered. On the same occasion, the Ridvaz sought to proofread his book "Beit Ridvaz" on matters of the seventh (which is an appendix to the book "The Wig of the Table"). Rabbi Nachum wrote an entire pamphlet called "Seventh Addition" and at the end he wrote a scathing article against a sale permit. Along with his opposition, he worked to raise funds for Shemita peasants and gained widespread support from rabbis from Eastern Europe.
