The Shotz Dynasty’s Lag B’Omer Bonfire on Mt. Miron

Shotz is a Hasidic dynasty from the city of Suceava, Romania. Rabbi Yoel Moscowicz, the first Rebbe of Shotz, was a fifth generation descendant of the founder of Hasidism Rabbi Yisroel Baal Shem Tov.

The most prominent descendant of the Shotzer Rebbe is Rabbi Naftali Asher Yeshayahu Moskowitz, the Shotz-Melitzer Rebbe, in Ashdod, author of several books, including Peros Hailan on the laws of Chol HaMoed, and Nefesh Chaya, a commentary on the Book of Psalms.

Now let’s light some fire and dance.
