Amdur (Hasidic dynasty)

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki




Amdur Synagogue

Amdur (Yiddish: אמדור) was an early Hasidic dynasty originating from the town of Indura, Belarus, where it was founded by Chaim Chaykl Levin (1730-1787). The court of Amdur was arguably the first Hasidic dynasty and was known for its fiery and passionate nature. Reb Chaim Chaykl was staunch proponent of popular tzadikism and the abjuration of physical reality.[1][2][3]
