  • Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam (January 10, 1905 - June 18, 1994) was an Orthodox rabbi and the founding rebbe of the Sanz-Klausenberg Hasidic dynasty. His was known for his personal righteousness, kindness toward others, and Torah wisdom that positively influenced whole communities before, during and after the Holocaust, making him a natural leader, mentor, and father figure for thousands of Jews of all ages. Halberstam became one of the youngest rebbes in Europe, leading thousands of followers in the town of Klausenberg, Romania, before World War II. His wife, eleven children and most of his followers were murdered by the Nazis while he was incarcerated in several concentration camps. After the war, he rebuilt Jewish communal life in the displaced persons camps of Western Europe, re-established his dynasty in the United States and Israel, and rebuilt his own family with a second marriage and the birth of seven more children.
