Sambur (Hasidic dynasty)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sambur, or Sambor, is the name of two distinct Hasidic dynasties: one founded by Rebbe Moshe Eichenstein of Sambir, Ukraine, a brother of Rabbi Tzvi Hirsh of Zidichov.[1] The other was founded by Rabbi Uri Jolles, of the same town.[1] The Sambor dynasty continues in the Bronx and Buenos Aires.[2]
