Me too.
I meant to ask if you could share what it means.

It's "Chabadspeak" for 'Polish' Chassidim who traditionally put the stress on Avoda of Midos (CHesed, Gevurah Tiferes (ChaGa"S)), as opposed to Chabad Chassidim who put the stress on Avoda of the mind (CHochma, Bina, Da'as (ChaBa"D)).

I figured something along those lines.
Thanks.

In other words, non-Chabad Chassidim (?)

Yup

There were other non lubavitch Chabad chassidim but none made it past the Nazi era.

very interesting. Are any of this Rabbi Aharon Halevi Horowitz's seforim available?
The article mentions that he was a prolific writer

There still is at least 2 communities (Monsey and Williamsburg) non-Lubavitch Chabad chasidim a/k/a Malachim.

Thanks mods for splitting off this thread.

Does anyone know the difference or connection between the nine un nintziger Chassidim and the Malachim?

I never heard that term.

I have seen some of his Ma'amarim in Moondshine's Chiburim, I think in Migdal Oz?
Interesting stuff - one sticks out in particular - the spiritual significance of Dmey P"N (money given to a Rebbe along with a Pidyon), isn't it plain bribery? He goes on to explain it phenomenally.

Here is the link to Migdal Oz:

Tons of interesting (and "off the track") stuff, if you have the time to go through it.

Actually, already a couple decades before.
 

There still is at least 2 communities (Monsey and Williamsburg) non-Lubavitch Chabad chasidim a/k/a Malachim.

I wouldn't exactly put them in the same league as the other dynasties cited in the article that Dan linked to.
And I will stop right there.

Anyone here heard of the ניין און ניינציגער Chassidim?
