| | Rabbi Yisrael Baal Shem Tov 1698 - 1760 |
 | | The Baal Shem Tov was a member of the three man delegation that represented the Jews. | | | While most of the Jewish leaders were happy at the downfall of these evil men, the Baal Shem Tov was not. | | | Let us simply conclude that while there was no particular element in his teachings that could be viewed as new to Judaism, nevertheless his teachings revolutionized the Jewish world. |

| | The Baal Shem Tov Chabad.org |
| | The Baal Shem Tov taught that Judaism and Torah are the property of all Jews; that every Jew, regardless of station or background or endowments, is perfectly capable of serving G-d; and that Ahavat Yisrael must embrace the willingness to sacrifice oneself for the good of another Jew. | | | Thus, in the final years of his life, the Baal Shem Tov witnessed the beginning of the struggle that later, for a time, divided the Jewish people into two camps, the Chassidim and the Mitnagdim. | | | Some Rabbis who were not acquainted with the teachings of the Baal Shem Tov became suspicious lest here was yet another false "messianic" movement, and began to oppose it. |
