Sosnovitch (Sosnowiec ): Wednesday Parshath Toldoth 1937
R. Shlomo Chanoch HaKohen Rabinowitz was the eldest son of the Knesses Yechezkel, Rabbi Yechezkel Rabinowitz and great-grandson of the founder of the Radomsk dynasty, the Tiferes Shlomo. R. Sholomo Chanoch succeeded his father as Rebbe in 1910 and his dynamic and charismatic style attracted thousands to his court. Indeed, on the eve of World War II, Radomsk was the third largest Chasidus in Poland (after Ger and Alexander). Upon outbreak of war an escape plan to Eretz Israel was made available for the Rebbe, however he insisted he would not abandon his followers. He did indeed remain in Warsaw and on 18th Av 1942, was murdered by German Nazis along with every single member of his family. After four generations, the Radomsk dynasty came to an end and was never revived. R. Sholomo Chanoch published Shivchei Kohen and Birchath Shlomo, however much that was unpublished was lost due to war.
