R. Yissachar Dov Rokeach is the son of R. Mordechai Rokeach of Bilgoraj, who was the son of the third Belzer Rebbe, R. Yissachar Dov, and the nephew of R. Aharon Rokeach, the fourth Belzer Rebbe. Only nine years old when R. Aharon passed away, R. Yissachar Dov was appointed successor to R. Aharon in 1966 at the age of 18, a position he has held since, leading one of the largest Chassidic dynasties in Israel.
