'''Rabbi Dov Ber Schneuri — the Mitteler Rebbe''' (in Yiddish: ''Der Mitteler Rebbe'' — literally, "the Middle Rebbe")<ref>The title "the Middle Rebbe" (HaEmtza'i) became attached to him after his histalkus and the ascension of the [[Tzemach Tzedek]] as his successor. Rabbi Dov Ber's relatively brief tenure created a situation in which many chassidim had personally known all three Rebbeim — the [[Alter Rebbe]], Rabbi Dov Ber, and the Tzemach Tzedek. Rabbi Dov Ber, being the middle one, came to be known as "the Mitteler Rebbe."</ref> (9 Kislev 5534 — 9 Kislev 5588) was the second Rebbe in the dynasty of [[Chabad Rebbeim]] and the successor to his father, the [[Alter Rebbe]]. His leadership was characterized by tremendous expansion and abundance — he composed and delivered thousands of maamarei Chassidus at great length. He is widely known by the title "the Mitteler Rebbe," which became his designation after his histalkus, when the third Rebbe of the Chabad movement — the Tzemach Tzedek — was appointed. At that point, Rabbi Dov Ber became the middle figure among three Rebbeim. | '''Rabbi Dov Ber Schneuri — the Mitteler Rebbe''' (in Yiddish: ''Der Mitteler Rebbe'' — literally, "the Middle Rebbe")<ref>The title "the Middle Rebbe" (HaEmtza'i) became attached to him after his histalkus and the ascension of the [[Tzemach Tzedek]] as his successor.
