Rabbi Chaim Halberstam, founder of the Sanz dynasty

Sanz (or Tsanz, Yiddish: צאנז) is a Hasidic dynasty originating in the city of Sanz (Nowy Sącz) in Galicia. The dynasty was founded by the rebbe Rabbi Chaim Halberstam (1793–1876) who was the rabbi of Nowy Sącz and the author of the work Divrei Chaim by which name he is known as well.

Rabbi Chaim was a disciple of Rabbi Naftali Zvi of Ropshitz.[a] He opened his court after the death of Rabbi Asher Yeshaya of Ropshitz, son-in-law of Rabbi Naftali Tzvi.

After his demise (25 Nisan 5636, 19 April 1876), his six sons and his seven sons-in-law built courtyards with new names in the cities where they served as rabbis, and their chassidim separated, but most of them went to his eldest son, Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Halberstam of Shinova. His fourth son, Rabbi Aharon, remained to serve as rabbi and rebbe in Sanz, but he was known as the 'Rav of Kreiz', that is, the rabbi of the province, a title he already had in his father's life. In the generations that followed, there were divisions within the courtyards of the dynasty and dozens of different courts were established from the dynasty, and existed until the Holocaust.

Sanz dynasty

The Divrei Chaim had fourteen children; his seven sons were:

  1. Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Halberstam (1814–1898) of Shinive;
  2. Rabbi Duvid Halberstam (1821–1894) of Kshaniv;
  3. Rabbi Myer Nosson Halberstam (1827–1855), father of Rabbi Shlomo Halberstam, the first Bobover Rebbe;
  4. Rabbi Boruch Halberstam (1829–1906) of Gorlice (גארליץ Gorlitz);
  5. Rabbi Aharon Halberstam, his successor in Nowy Sącz;
  6. Rabbi Shulem Lazer Halberstam of Ratzfert (1862–1944), who was murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust;
  7. Rabbi Yitzchok Yeshaye Halberstam of Czchów (טשחויווTshkhoiv) (1864–1944), who was also murdered by the Nazis;

and seven daughters:

  1. Reitza who married Rabbi Mordechai Dov Twerski, the Admor of Hornsteipl.
  2. Miryam who married Rabbi Moshe Unger, son of Rabbi Mordechai David of Dombrov.
  3. Yuta who married Rabbi Eliezer Yerucham Baron, son of Rabbi Yisrael Yitzchak Baron of Radoshitz
  4. Nechama who married Rabbi Yitzchak Tuvia Rubin, rabbi of "New Sanz" and son of Rabbi Meir Rubin of Glogov-Dombrova
  5. Tila who married Rabbi Aharon Horowitz, Admor of Beitsh (Biecz), son of Rabbi Meir Horowitz of Dzikov
  6. Freidel who married Rabbi Elazar HaLevi Rosenfeld, Av Beit Din of Oswiecim, son of Rabbi Yehoshua HaLevi Rosenfeld of Kaminke [HE]

Books of the Sanz movement

The main Hasidic works revered by the Sanz Dynasty are Divrei Chaim, by Rabbi Chaim Halberstam of Tsanz and Divrei Yechezkel by his son, Rabbi Yechezkel Shraga Halberstam.

Names

The place name Sanz in Poland should not be confused with the city Sens in France, for which another name is Shanz, as in Tos'fos Shanz, the title of famous commentators of the Talmud. Shanz is also sometimes spelled Shantz.
