context_page_description: Slonim is a Hasidic dynasty originating in the town of Slonim, which is now in Belarus.
  Today, there are two Slonimer Rebbes, both in Israel: One resides in Jerusalem, and the other in Bnei Brak. Colloquially, the Jerusalem side is called the "White" side, and the Bnei Brak side is called the "Black". When Slonim Hasidim split into separate factions, the leader of one, Rabbi Sholom Noach Berezovsky, had a white beard, and the leader of the other, Rabbi Avraham Weinberg, had a black beard. The factions are distinguished by different Hebrew spellings, the Jerusalem group being known as סלונים and the Bnei Brak group being known as סלאנים. They are two distinct groups today, and have many differences between them.
  The first Rebbe of Slonim, Rabbi Avraham Weinberg, was the author of Yesod HaAvodah. In 1873, he sent a group of his grandchildren and other Hasidim to settle in Ottoman Palestine; they set up their community in Tiberias. Almost all of the Slonimer Hasidim in Europe perished at the hands of the Nazis in the Holocaust. The present-day Slonimer community was rebuilt from the Slonimer Hasidim who had settled in Israel.
