Chanukkah 5775: ”Dreaming of Light” with Rute Yair-Nussbaum
from Around the Calendar with Drisha · host Drisha Institute
As Channukah is a rabbinic holiday, it becomes in Chassidut a metaphor for the power and potential of oral law. By lighting Channukah candles, we become exposed not only to the unrevealed part of Torah but to unrevealed realms of our own lives and surroundings. How can Channukah be understood as a celebration of potential not yet actualized and dreams not yet made real?
