This project has been created to show the lineage of the Modzitzer Rebbes.
Background of this lineage
Modzitz or Modzhitz is the name of a Hasidic group within Orthodox Judaism that derives its name from Modrzyce, one of the boroughs of the town of Dęblin, Poland, located on the Vistula River. The rabbis of this dynasty have the family name of "Taub".
Followers of this group are known as Modzitzer Hasidim and are now based mainly in Bnei Brak, where their Rebbe lives, and Jerusalem in Israel. They also have a smaller following in Brooklyn, Monsey, New York, and Far Rockaway, Queens, Los Angeles, and Toronto.
