Rebbe Yitzchak of Neschitz (1789-1868) was the youngest son of Rebbe Mordechai of Neschitz. He was a prime disciple of Rebbe Levi Yitzchak of Berdichev, marrying his granddaughter and delivering Torah thoughts in his name. He was also a disciple of Rebbe Baruch of Medzhybizh and the Seer of Lublin. He was appointed rebbe at a young age and held the position for over 60 years. He was renowned for his prayers, the miracles he performed and his Divine revelations. He was revered as a holy man by all streams of Chassidut, and was acknowledged as one who "facilitates the flow of Heavenly bounty to all the Jewish people" (letter from R. Baruch Shapira, an outstanding chassid of Przysucha and Kotzk). His disciples included Rebbe Elimelech of Grodzisk, R. Yaakov Tzvi of Parysów and others.
