Elimelech of Lizhensk
Elimelech Weisblum of Lizhensk was a rabbi and one of the great founding Rebbes of the Hasidic movement. He was known after his hometown, Leżajsk near Rzeszów in Poland. He was part of the inner "Chevraya Kadisha" school of the Maggid Rebbe Dov Ber of Mezeritch, who became the decentralised, third generation leadership after the passing of Rebbe Dov Ber in 1772. Their dissemination to new areas of Eastern Europe led the movement's rapid revivalist expansion.
