Naftali Tzvi Labin of Zidichov (נפתלי צבי לאבין מזידיטשוב) (born approx. 1916) is the current Zidichover rebbe. He was born in Ziditshoiv, Galicia, which was then a province of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, where this hasidic group was first founded by Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh of Zidichov. He later replanted the movement in London, and then Brooklyn, New York, and Monticello, NY.

Rabbi Labin was very close to many rebbes of the previous generation, including Rabbi Yoel Teitelbaum, the Satmar Rebbe; Rabbi Aharon Rokeach, the previous rebbe of Belz; Rebbe Moshe Yitzchak Gevirtzman, (Reb Itzikl) of Pshevorsk; and Rebbe Yaakov Leiser (Reb Yankele) of Pshevorsk.

Today Labin lives in Williamsburg, New York.

[edit] Aphorism

"If you listen to, and you do what and when evil wants you to do, evil owns you. If you say to evil ok I’ll do it, 'just let me have 5 minutes before doing it' you are still his friend, but he does not own you. Oy vey, where's the metamucil? I tink I need schum fiber... mein intestines is killing me!"^{[citation needed]}
