Talk:Kalov (Hasidic dynasty)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

will someone fill in the rest of the lineage, and write the lineage of the Rebbe from Williamsburg? Thank you

The page Kaalov (which I redirected to this page) had some information about the Kalover Rabbi's that might be worth merging. [Moshe Taub] immigrated to the United States as a child shortly after WWII. His late father Grand Rabbi Menarche Shlomo, a Holocaust survivor rebuilt anew in Brooklyn, New York the Kalover Chasidic group, which had been decimated by the Nazis. Upon his father’s death in 1978, the present Rebbe assumed the position of Kalover Rebbe, and under his dynamic leadership the group has enjoyed astounding growth and remarkable success. In addition to the institutions built by his father, the Rebbe has devoted his life with endless self-sacrifice, to visit and travel all over the globe where there are Jewish communities and high schools, to strengthen them on a communal and individual basis. This outreach goes back to his great grand father the early 19th century Zadik Reb Eisikal who was the Talmid of the Magid who was the Talmud of the Bas”t. the founder of Chasidism, which in essence brought this concept of outreach into action. Reaching out to the Jew who is not connected and affiliated to any Torah institution or involvement, and make him feel how special he is to G-d. Hundreds and thousands of Jews from all ages and denominations have been uplifted and motivated from his torah advice and musar inspirations. All this was done by the Rebbe, for the last thirty years, with absolutely excepting no money, nor solicitation of any kind, this mission is only for the sole purpose of seeing Yidishkiet strengthened and sanctified.
