Chanukah

View the answer of the Rabbi>>

The light of Chanuka becomes dark in Tevet but it never disappears.

The Jewish war against Greek culture continued with its battle against Christianity, which is a blend of Jewish and Greek-Roman ideas, and continues today as well. The leading culture today is Western culture, built on the foundations of Christian culture. And so the points of difference that exist today between Torah and Western culture are also based on the points of struggle between Greek and Jewish philosophy.

What is Chanuka really all about? Does it revolve around the miracle of the oil lasting for 8 days instead of just 1?

Is the minhag of some women to curtail work on Chanuka binding? When exactly does it apply, and what type of work is included?
