Chanukah 5783: The “Beloved” Mitzvah of Ner Chanukah

Have any questions, insights, or feedback? Send me a text!Synopsis: This is the audio version of the 1-page article I wrote, entitled, Chanukah 5783: The “Beloved” Mitzvah of Ner Chanukah. What makes Ner Chanukah a "beloved mitzvah"? My current answer to that question draws upon teachings from Rambam, the Rav, and the beautiful definition of "shechinah" given by R' Dovid Tzvi Hoffmann. And, on a personal note, this article was an important reminder to me that not EVERY article has to be an original chidush (new insight) on my part, but that it is just as important to share my synthesis of ideas I've learned from other sources.-----This week's Torah content has been sponsored by Sarah in celebration of the marriage of Rivkie and Dovi Siderson.
