'''Rabbi Nachman of Horodenka''' was among the leading disciples of the [[Baal Shem Tov]], and is described in his master's writings as a trusted member of his household.<ref>The Baal Shem Tov refers to him in this way in a letter from the [[Kherson Genizah]], letter 133.</ref>

== Life ==

Rabbi Nachman was born to R' Yitzchak. His brother was Rabbi [[Yaakov Yehuda Leib of Medzibuzh]].

In his early years he opposed the path of the Baal Shem Tov, but he eventually drew close and became one of his devoted Chassidim.<ref>See [[Shivchei HaBesht]].</ref>

Rabbi Nachman of Horodenka is said to have refined his limbs to such a degree that they acted entirely in accordance with the Divine will. On one occasion, the Baal Shem Tov spoke publicly in his praise — and Rabbi Nachman bent his ear low to listen from nearby. The disciples were puzzled by this, and the Baal Shem Tov explained: Rabbi Nachman had prayed that he would not hear anything unnecessary for him to hear, and so he could not hear when others spoke his praises — yet when Torah was being spoken, he could hear even from a great distance.<ref>Shivchei HaBaal Shem Tov.</ref>

He was also the Baal Shem Tov's mechutan (co-father-in-law): Rabbi Nachman's son Rabbi Simcha married Maras [[Adel]], the Baal Shem Tov's daughter.<ref>[https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=29141 Shem V'She'erit, p. 16].</ref>

Rabbi Nachman made an early journey to the Land of Israel — before the year [[5500 (1740)]] — together with his son Shimshon Chaim, though he returned to [[Medzibuzh]] that same year.

Rabbi Nachman passed away in [[Tiberias]] on the 2nd of Tammuz, [[5525 (1765)]] — less than a year after his arrival in the Holy Land.
