Bohush (Yiddish: בוהוש) is a Hasidicdynasty named for the town of Buhuși, Romania. The dynasty began in the mid-nineteenth century with Rabbi Yitzchok Friedman of Bohush, the eldest grandson of Rabbi Yisrael Friedman of Ruzhyn, and was based in that town until 1951, when his great-grandson, Rabbi Yitzchok Friedman of Bohush-Tel Aviv, moved the dynasty to Tel Aviv.[1] In 1987 the Bohush beis medrash was transferred to Bnei Brak,[2] where the dynasty is led today by Rabbi Yaakov Mendel Friedman, a great-great-grandson of the first Bohusher Rebbe.[3][4]
Rabbi Yaakov Mendel leads his court at 12 Rechov Chaggai, a few doors away from the original Kloyz in Bnei Brak. He leads it with a fire and a passion. Since he took on the mantle of leadership, the Hasidus has expanded tremendously with three yeshivos, two kollels, and communities all over Israel, in The United States, Antwerp and London.
