“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket. Instead, they put it on a lampstand so it gives light to all in the house.” – Mt 5:14-15, TLV Now Hang On! I thought we had made ...
“I, ADONAI, called You in righteousness, I will take hold of Your hand, I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, as a light to the nations. – Isa 42:6, TLV On the second day of Chanukah, we light two lights using our shamash light. Two lights makes me think of the two ...
Yeshua spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. The one who follows Me will no longer walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” – John 8:12, TLV For more than three years, the light in the Temple had been unlit. The ner tamid, the eternal flame, had been, ...
Chanukah comes early this year! Well, you know, actually it doesn’t! It comes EXACTLY when it always does — on 25 Kislev on the Hebrew Calendar.

Many scholars think that the dreidel developed from an Irish or English spinning top game that was introduced into Germany and then taken up by the Ashkenazi Jewish community. It was the Jewish community ...
How to light the Chanukiah Candles? Arrange the lights on the Chanukiah. On the first night, set one candle to the far right of the menorah (as you look at it from the front). On the following night, add a second light to the left of the first one, and then add one light each night of ...
The most well known of all the Chanukah traditions would be lighting the candles on the Chanukah Menorah, which is more correctly called a Chanukiah. Unlike the traditional menorah of the Temple that has seven lights, this lightstand has nine lights. There are eight that are all at the same level and a ninth that ...
So… How exactly is this holiday spelled? With an “H” or a “Ch”? Are we supposed to double the “k” or not? Hanukkah? Hanukah? Chanukkah? Chanukah? It is really confusing! And the basic problem is that the holiday is actually spelled… חנוכה. Obviously, it is a Hebrew word and so it is composed of Hebrew letters. When we ...
