Nachum Dov Brayer
Nachum Dov Brayer (born 15 April 1959)〔 is the present Rebbe of the Boyan Hasidic dynasty. He is the grandson of the former Boyaner Rebbe of New York, Rabbi Mordechai Shlomo Friedman, who died when he was 11 years old. On Hanukkah 1984, at the age of 25, he was coronated Boyaner Rebbe. He lives in Jerusalem.
==Biography==
The Rebbe's father, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Brayer (1922–2007〔), was a Modern Orthodox academic researcher, student psychologist, and lecturer in Bible, education, and Jewish philosophy at Yeshiva University.〔 His mother, Malka (1923–31 August 2012),〔Schneid, D. "Rebbetzin Malka Brayer, ''a"h''". ''Hamodia'' Israel News, 6 September 2012, p. A16.〕 was the only daughter of the Boyaner Rebbe of New York. On his mother's side, Nachum Dov is the great-grandson of the founder of Boyaner Hasidut, Rabbi Yitzchok Friedman (also known as the ''Pachad Yitzchok''), the great-great-grandson of the first Sadigura Rebbe, Rabbi Avrohom Yaakov Friedman, and the great-great-great-grandson of the founder of Ruzhiner Hasidut, Rabbi Yisroel of Ruzhin. He has a brother, Yigal Yisroel Avrohom, and a sister, Nechama Chaya, wife of Rabbi Gedalyah Block.〔〔
When the Boyaner Rebbe of New York died of a stroke on 2 March 1971,〔Friedman, Yisroel. ''The Golden Dynasty: Ruzhin, the royal house of Chassidus''. Jerusalem: The Kest-Lebovits Jewish Heritage and Roots Library, 2nd English edition, 2000, p. 130.〕 the Boyaner Hasidim were left leaderless. They asked the Rebbe's eldest son, Yisroel, to become the next Rebbe, but he declined. The Hasidim then asked the Rebbe's daughter Malka and her husband, Rabbi Dr. Brayer, to offer one of their two young sons for the leadership. The eldest, Yigal, who was studying to be an aerospace engineer, was suggested and then rejected. The lot fell to the younger son, Nachum Dov, who then enrolled at the Ruzhiner Yeshiva in Jerusalem to prepare himself for the task.
Over the years, Brayer was subjected to intense pressure to accept the mantle of leadership, even though he preferred to join a kollel and dedicate his life to Torah study. Rabbi Yisrael Alter of Ger, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneersohn of Lubavitch, and Rabbi Moshe Feinstein were among those who prevailed upon him to accept the position, while Boyaner Hasidim kept reminding him of the great moral responsibility he had to keep the dynasty going.〔Brayer, ''The House of Rizhin'', p. 478.〕 Finally he agreed, and on Hanukkah 1984, at the age of 25, he was declared Boyaner Rebbe.〔Mintz, ''Hasidic People: A place in the new world'', p. 271–272.〕
