Hasidic

Yankev is Hasidic.

Next, R. Moskowitz brings us to the Slonimer Rebbe, a late 20th century Hasidic rabbi, who taught that the evil of Esav was that very sense of completion, the self-perception that he had no need for growth or further transformation.

About 30 miles away, the rural Sullivan County village of Bloomingburg also has a notable Hasidic Jewish community, but it is not very big, nor considered to have the explosive growth associated with Kiryas Joel, Gestetner said.

[Marc] Chagall’s parents were Hasidics, members of a group of Jewish mystics.

He [Yankel Rosenbaum] was the second person to die violently in the Crown Heights district of Brooklyn in less than 12 hours. The first was a 7-year-old black child by the name of Gavin Cato, knocked down at 4.30pm the previous day by a speeding car driven by a Hasidic who, it was said, had then tried to run away from the scene of the accident.

Of the msgs on the voicemail we checked, what surprised us the most were the appointment confirmations from gun ranges and attendance requests from Hasidics seeking a minyan.
