[Heb-NACO] Admor Shelita as a cross reference for Hassidic Rebbes

[Miriam Gloger]

The term Admor Shelita אדמו"ר שליט"א (Adoni, mori v.e-rabi she-yih.yeh
le-orekh yamim t.ovim amen --

my master, teacher, and Rabbi, he should live to the length of good days
amen)

is kind of like saying his excellency, or his holiness -- it is an
honorific typically used for Hassidic Rebbes.  In some cases it is used
somewhat correctly as Admor of a place/Congregation

but even in those cases, it probably should have dates because Hassidic
groups/communities are dynastic so that there are 1) often several
generations of Admor mi-(name the city) 2) in some cases like Satmar,
Bobov, Vizhnitz, there are splits, -- so that there are 2 Admor mi-(name
the group) at a time writing about the same subject!





Below are a few examples of usage with and without a date.  In the second
record Shelita $c Admor makes absolutely no sense.
