Zlotshov is the name of a Hasidic dynasty founded by Rebbe Yechiel Michel; Zlotshov or Zlotshev is the Yiddish name of Zolochiv, a town in present-day Ukraine. Known as the "Maggid of Zlotchev", Yechiel Michel (1726 - the 25th of Elul 5546/18 September 1786) was a disciple of the Baal Shem Tov, the founder of Hasidism, and of the Maggid of Mezritch.[1]
Yechiel Mechel's five sons, in turn, all founded their own branches of the Zlotshov dynasty. Descendant dynasties include the Zvhil, Skolye, Zvhil-Mezhbizh and Shotz dynasties.[1] Rabbi Yechiel Michel Michlowitz (from Michalovce), known as the Zlotshover Rebbe of Netanya (died January 13, 2015),[2] claimed descent from the dynasty's founder, but his exact lineage is unknown.[1]
