Kuzmir (Hasidic dynasty)

Kuzmir is a Hasidic dynasty founded by Rebbe Yechezkel Taub (1772–1856), a disciple of Yaakov Yitzchak (the Seer of Lublin), Yisroel Hopstein (the Kozhnitser Magid) and Shmuel of Karov. Kuzmir is the Yiddish name of Kazimierz Dolny, a town in present-day Poland.^[1] The dynasty's branches include the Yablono, Zvolin and Modzitz dynasties, as well as Kfar Hasidim, a moshav in Israel.^[2]

The title of Kuzmirer Rebbe was revived for its current holder, Rebbe Pinchas Moshe Taub,^[3] the brother of the present Modzitzer Rebbe.
