Mitnaggedim (Heb., ‘opponents’). Designation of the Jewish opponents to
ḥasidism.
Elijah b. Solomon Zalman, the Vilna
Gaon, led the opposition to ḥasidism and created an alternative pattern of Judaism which rested on intellectual discipline, study, and
Orthodox practice. His followers, the mitnaggedim, opposed the Ḥasidim and the
Haskalah (Enlightenment).
