Moshe Rabbenu was a Satmar?
Josh Waxman at parshablog linked to this great little video on YouTube that purports to prove that Moshe Rabbenu was a Satmar.
I have to disagree with the Yeshiva Bochur in one respect. I think it is more likely that Moshe was Breslov, not Satmar. Why? Because if he is mamash a Hasid, then it makes more sense for him to be Breslov since Rebbe Nachman was the grandson of the Baal Shem Tov, the actual founder of modern Hasidism.
Of course, I could be biased since my rabbi's background is Breslov....
The various musings and kvetchings of a Torah-observing, eBook-editing, wife-adoring, baby-loving ger. Everything from Torah study to technology is fair game.

OK....so a few questions.....what is "Shatmar" and what is "Bochur" and what is their differences? I looked in your index of terms but they weren't in there.
(I am good at listening to German and picking it apart, but that one I had to listen to about four times before I figured out all that he was saying....lol)
Pretty difficult to think Moshe Rabbenu was Satmar, the sect takes it's name from St. Mary, Hungary (where the movement began).
Sarah, the Hasidim take their sect names from the regions or cities where the movements began. TriCity Jewish Center has a great pdf download (APHOR_Feb_2007.pdf) that discusses the history of Hasidism.
