On July 27, 1917 he became a Jewish representative at the General Secretariat of Ukraine (regional government of the Russian Republic). During the October Revolution Zylberfarb became a member of the Regional Committee in Protection of Revolution in Ukraine. After the independence of Ukraine, Zylberfarb became a Minister of Jewish Affairs in Ukraine. During 1918 to 1920 he was a rector at the Jewish National University[2] and the Society in support of development of Jewish Culture (Culture League) in Kiev.
