He was on the Agudat Yisrael list for the 1969 elections, and although he failed to win a seat, he entered the Knesset on 27 November 1972 as a replacement for Shlomo-Ya'akov Gross,[1] who had resigned his seat as part of a rotation agreement. He was a member of Internal Affairs Committee until losing his seat in the 1973 elections.

He died in 1979.

One son, David, died during the Yom Kippur War, whilst the other Eliezer, also became a member of the Knesset for Agudat Yisrael.
