## Findings (List)
- This is called a botteh ( )באטעin Yiddish or a shevet achim ( )שבת אחיםin Hebrew.
- It is often led by a Rabbi who is not a Rebbe, such as a Rosh Yeshivah, Mashgiach Ruchani,
or a Rebbe's son.
- Often, a botteh will be indistinguishable from a tische, for the respect that many Hasidim
have for their Rebbe's son is often very close to the reverence for the Rebbe himself, as he is
the assumed heir to the throne.
- === Farbrengen ===
Among Lubavitcher Hasidim, a gathering known as a farbrengen (Yiddish: פארברענגען, lit.
## Discussion
'gathering') is celebrated, similar to a tish. A farbrengen may be conducted with or without
the presence of a Rebbe, and even with the presence of only a few Hasidim.
## Analysis
At a farbrengen, zemiros are generally not sung (with the exception of the zemiros of the
Arizal for each Sabbath meal), but rather only niggunim. == References ==
