The Story Behind the Painting

The Ba'al Shem Tov didn't leave behind any writings. He left a legacy.

Depicted here is the entire Chain of Chassidus, starting with his personal Talmidim, and further branching to their students and on. He taught us how to bring G-d into our everyday life and the concept that every single event occurs with divine intent. The Ba'al Shem Tov founded Chassidus, and revitalized Eastern European Jewry.

This is his Legacy.
