Dovber Schneuri

Rabbi Dovber Schneuri was the second Rebbe (spiritual leader) of the Chabad-Lubavitch Chasidic movement. He was born on November 13, 1773, in Liozna, Belarus, and succeeded his father, Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, as the leader of Chabad upon the latter's death in 1812. Rabbi Dovber is known for his profound scholarly contributions to Jewish mysticism and Chasidic philosophy, and he played a pivotal role in the expansion and consolidation of the Chabad movement during the early 19th century. His works emphasize the intellectual and mystical dimensions of the Torah, aiming to make complex Kabbalistic concepts accessible to all.
