A Modern Chasidic Rebbe
Rabbi Weinberger adopted Chasidic attire (a Chasidic-style black hat during the week, and a shtreimel on Shabbat) and Payos ("side locks") while emphasising and spreading Chasidic thought. His teachings derive in part from Chabad, Breslov, Izbica, and others. In addition he began teaching works that were previously not easily available to the English-speaking public such as Rav Kook and the seforim of Bilvavi Mishkan Evneh.
