Chanukah Written by Rabbi David Maayan
Sunday, December 02, 2007 04:33 PM

This question, as well as other fascinating questions --- all arising from considerations about the proper height for a Chanukiah (Chanukah Menorah) --- is illuminated by analysis of passages from Parshah Vayetzei, the Gemara in Chagiga and Sukkah, the Bahir, the Tanya, Rashi, the Sfas Emes (The Gerer Rebbe), and others. 

This class was given by Rabbi David Maayan on Sunday evening, December 2, 2007, at the Adams Street Shul.  Did you miss Rabbi Maayan's pre-Chanukah shiur?  Well not anymore; we recorded it!  Here it is: 


(1 hour and 29 minutes)

If you've ever been boggled by the oneness of God versus the multiplicity of Creation, or wondered what to serve when a king comes to dinner, or been attracted to Platonic Forms, or even if you are just seeking a chiddush on why Moshe couldn't enter the mishkan while the Shechinah was there, don't miss Rabbi Maayan's Pre-Chanukah Shiur.
