Ropshitz (Hasidic dynasty)

Ropshitz is the name of a Hasidic dynasty, or rabbinical family and group who are descendants of Rabbi Naftali Zvi of Ropshitz (1760-1827). Ropshitz is the name of a town in southern Poland known in Polish as Ropczyce.

Many major rabbis are descendants of the Rebbes of Ropshitz.

Among the offshoots of the Ropshitz dynasty are, the Dzikov, Glogov, Melitz, Stitshin, and Strizov dynasties.

Today, Rabbi Chaim Meir Yechiel Rubin, the son of the Muzhayer Rebbe, is the Ropshitzer Rebbe.
