The Ahavas Yisroel, as he was known, was the first-born son of the Imrei Boruch (1845-1892). He married the daughter of R. Meir Horowitz of Dzhikov and following the death of his father, became Rebbe of Vishnitz, greatly expanding its following. Thirteen years after his death, he was reinterned in Eretz Israel.
