With Sadigura in the news, here's an overview of the Ruzhin dynasty and which branches are still active today. Some like Shtefanesht, Husyatin and Chrotkov are pretty much gone. Boyan is here but without the Friedman name. Buhush and of course Sadigura are still around with the direct Friedman link.
Interestingly enough, there have been young successors to positions of power throughout history. Rav Chaim Brisker, Rav Moshe Feinstein, Rav Ovadiah Yosef, the Ben Ish Chai, Rav Isser Zalman
Meltzer, the Yenuka of Stolin, the Belzer Rebbe, Rav Nachman of Breslov, the Ruzhiner himself, King Hussein of Jordan, Michael Dell and many, many others, have risen to leadership at a young age, with each once being another unique piece of history.
“King Hussein of Jordan, Michael Dell“
ReplyDeleteHuh????
Anyways if you want to include these ppl then you forgot Mark Zuckerberg.
Besides, the fact that Reb Moshe became a Rov at a very young age has nothing to do with Chasidishe Rebbes who inherited their position from their father. Remember, Reb Moshe was a Baki Bshas at 14, and by 18 when he became Rov, he was well versed in all areas of Torah. He didn’t rise to power he was always very great...
He gradeh did mention zuckerberg but still odd to equate them with the others
