Zvi Elimelech Halberstam (Hebrew: צבי אלימלך הלברשטאם, Yiddish: צבי אלימלך האלבערשטאם; born 1952) is the present Sanz Rebbe of Netanya, Israel. He is also known as the Sanzer Rebbe. He is the eldest son of Rabbi Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam, the first Sanz-Klausenberger Rebbe, who in his will divided the leadership of the Klausenburger Hasidim between his two sons, Rabbi Zvi Elimelech and Rabbi Shmuel Dovid (the present Sanz-Klausenburger Rebbe of Brooklyn). He holds his court in the Kiryat Sanz, Netanya neighborhood founded by his father.
