Dinov (Hasidic dynasty)
Dinov (Yiddish: דינאָוו, Hebrew: דינוב) is the name of a Hasidic dynasty, descended from Rabbi Tzvi Elimelech Spira of Dinov (c. 1783 – 1841), also called "the Bnei Yisaschar" after his popular work: בני יששכר [Bene Yiśaśkhar]. Dinov is the Yiddish name of Dynów, a town in southern Poland, in the historic region of Galicia.[1]
Notable Hasidic movements descended from the Dinov dynasty are Munkatch and Bluzhov.

Notes
- ↑ In ha-Ḥasidut mi-dor le-dor, Alfasi writes that he was the son-in-law of Rebbe Mendel Rubin of Glogov of the Ropshitz dynasty, and so includes Rebbe Eliezer and his sons in the Ropshitz dynasty. However, in his Entsiḳlopedyah la-Ḥasidut he agrees with the other sources.
- ↑ Alfasi,[13] Rand,[14] and Vunder[15] write that Rebbe Eliezer's father-in-law was Rabbi Simcha of Lantzut; later,[16] Vunder retracts and writes that his father-in-law was Rebbe Elazar of Lantzut (Rabbi Simcha's father). Rebbe Avraham David Rubin's own tombstone,[17] however, agrees with Alfasi and Rand.
- ↑ Rebbe Eliezer's ancestor "Rebbe Menachem Mendel of Linsk" can be identified either with Rebbe Mendel Rubin (or Rabin), the rabbi of Linsk (Lesko), father of Rebbe Naftali Tzvi Horowitz of Ropshitz, or with Rebbe Menachem Mendel Horowitz, rabbi and rebbe of Linsk, Rebbe Naftali Tzvi's grandson. In Volume 2 of Meʼore Galitsyah, Ṿunder writes that Rebbe Eliezer was the son of Rebbe Avraham Chaim Horowitz (the second) of Linsk, son of Rebbe Menachem Mendel Horowitz of Linsk. In Volume 4, he writes that Rebbe Eliezer succeeded his father, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Rubin—who was the grandson of Rebbe Naftali Tzvi of Ropshitz's brother—as the rabbi and rebbe of Baligrod.
