Etymology
The word "rebbe" is derived from the Yiddish word "reb", which is itself derived from the Hebrew word "rav", meaning "a teacher" or "master".
Meaning
The term "rebbe" refers to a Jewish religious leader who oversees a group of followers and provides spiritual guidance.
Origin
The concept of the rebbe emerged in the Hasidic movement, a religious revival that swept through Eastern Europe in the 18th century. Hasidic Jews believed that their rebbes were righteous individuals who possessed a deep understanding of the Torah and were able to guide their followers through the complexities of life.
Over time, the term "rebbe" has come to be used more broadly to refer to any Jewish religious leader who has a group of followers, regardless of their affiliation with Hasidism.
