A Rebbe is a spiritual leader in Hasidic Judaism, often serving as a teacher, guide, and mentor to their community. They provide religious instruction, offer advice on personal and spiritual matters, and lead prayer services. Rebbes often embody the teachings of Hasidism, emphasizing the importance of joy, faith, and community in one's relationship with God. Their role can also include performing rituals and providing blessings to their followers.

The term rebbe is used to refer to the rabbi who is a leader of a Hassidic sect. So, there is the Bobover Rebbe, the Bostoner Rebbe, the Chernobler Rebbe etc. It is very common that the sects are named after the town where they originated. The Rebbe of Borsche would then be the Hassidic leader of the town of Borsche and might also be known as the Borscher Rebbe.
