Ropshitz (Hasidic Dynasty)

Ropshitz (Yiddish: ראָפשיץ, Hebrew: רופשיץ‎) is the name of a Hasidic dynasty, or rabbinical family and group who are descendants of Rabbi Naftali Zvi of Ropshitz (1760–1827). Ropshitz is the name of a town in southern Poland known in Polish as Ropczyce.

Many major rabbis are descendants of the rebbes of Ropshitz. The dynastic offshoots of the Ropshitz dynasty are enumerated below.

Several contemporary rebbes (none with large followings) are styled "Ropshitzer Rebbe" in reference to the Ropshitz dynasty: Rebbe Chaim Rubin, Ropshitzer Rebbe of Borough Park, Brooklyn, New York (see Ropshitz branch below) and others.
