Bobov, (or Bobover Hasidism) (חסידות באבוב) is a Hasidic group within Haredi Judaism originating in Bobowa, Galicia in Southern Poland and now headquartered in the neighborhood of Borough Park in Brooklyn, New York. Bobov has branches in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn; Monsey, New York; Miami; Montreal; Toronto; Antwerp and London. In Israel, Bobov has large branches in Jerusalem, Bnei Brak, Ashdod, Betar Illit and an enclave Kiryath Bobov in Bat Yam.
Ben Zion Aryeh Leibish Halberstam (בן ציון אריה לייבוש הלברשטאם) is the Grand Rabbi of the Bobov Hasidic movement. Born in 1955 to Grand Rabbi Shlomo Halberstam of Bobov, the third Bobover Rebbe, Rabbi Ben Zion Aryeh Leibish Halberstam is regarded by many as the Bobover Rebbe ( כ”ק אדמו”ר מבאבוב, שליט”א ).
Rabbi Ben Zion Aryeh Leibish Halberstam is presently Rabbi in the Bobover synagogue in Brooklyn.
