THE LIGHTS OF THE


Light Michael Ricks

Hanukkah, THE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS


We celebrate Chanukah as every year. Every year, our homes and our synagogues will fill each night a little more light. Like every year, the faces of our children will light the flames they will cover the candlestick, and also by the gifts they receive.







Chanukah is a festival rabbinical like Purim. The rabbis added the solemn feasts of the Bible, whereas these events and their lessons were to remain etched in Jewish memory.

Do not forget, again and again. Memory future needs at all times.

' Hanukkah lasts eight days.
Eight, the figure of the supernatural, the figure of infinity, the figure of the Messiah.
the eighth day transcends nature circumscribed in the weekly cycle.
The Berith Milah affix the sex of the child mark the completion of the body of the descendants of Abraham.
the eighth day, the divine covenant is sealed to the member of the generation. The life of the Jew is therefore marked by the demanding service of the Lord.

Already, the pilgrimage festivals are marked with the figure eight.
Sukkot, which ends on the eighth day by rail Atséreth.
But it is not wrong to say that Shavuot is also the eighth day of Passover, with forty-nine days of preparation. The eighth day requires preparation.


Rabenou Behaye remarked that each object has a relationship of holiness with the number eight.

Chanukah is the festival of the inauguration of the Temple. Chanukah celebrates a place for supernatural supernatural.

Chanukah is also the first Yom Ha'atzmaut of Israel. Indeed, with the Hasmonean victory, a new Jewish state was proclaimed, which will last for decades, until the invasion of Pompey - 63.

For our sages, Chanukah is marked by a double miracle, the miracle of military victory and the miracle of the cruse of oil. The two go hand in hand.

For Judaism, spiritual life is not disembodied, it is expressed in concrete reality, sometimes through the pain of the fighting are still brothers.

In the prayer of Al Hanissim , recited in the Amidah and Birkat HaMazon, we mention only the miracle of the victory of Judah Maccabee: the small number overcomes the many. But the armed struggle was not meant to conquer territory. Jerusalem would not displace Athens.
Jerusalem would be Jerusalem, the capital of monotheism, the capital of the divine light that shone symbolically the seven branches of the menorah in the heart of the Temple, on the navel of the world. Jerusalem wanted to be face to Athens to bring the world of values and that of science, to ensure that science is not more developed out of moral conscience.

Umberto Ecco wrote in one of his works that the twenty-first century has hints of middle age, and more sophisticated weaponry.

Jerusalem over Athens : Japhet for remains in the tent of Shem, for science to be fettered by conscience. Ligation of science, that the new test of Abraham's son.
Judah Maccabee was probably the first surprise of his victories. This stimulated his arm, was the flame of Judaism. If Antiochus had succeeded his assimilationist project, there would be more than Judaism, because more Torah, more religious service in the Temple, over circumcision, Sabbath over, over public reading of the Torah.

In the Temple, the survivors of war lit the menorah in the emergency. They were in a state of impurity, but had no oil stain. No flags were hoisted. By filling the bucket perhaps they sang, with tears in his eyes: "Who is like You among the gods, O Lord."
What was to burn one day burned for eight days.

Israel's enemies have often said, "Jews do not have more than one day," wanting to seize the Warsaw Ghetto, for example, in 1948 too. But now, the Jewish people is like oil Temple shining miraculously for eight days, beyond nature, beyond logic, "beyond reality".

And so we must turn the 'hanoukia for eight days, and recite the text of Hanéroth Hallalou . And in this liturgy of gratitude to the Lord, the mention of military victory is absent.

By cons, we affirm that these lights are holy.
They must be contemplated.

Military victory is meaningless by the flames of Chanukah.
Light shall triumph of barbarism, the barbarism that reveals in our contemporary time the ugly face of a bloodthirsty god. "It is forbidden to use these flames" sings there, "only the look is required." Light of the Lord is not in our service, we are serving the Lord.
What other use could we make those flames? Enlighten us for private use. Again: The Light of the Lord is not in our service, we are serving the Lord. We could have used the flames to the fire, lighting a cigarette, lighting a gas stove?

The flames of the Lord shall enlighten and not burn. That the meaning of Chanukah, this is the meaning of religion: illuminating the faces and never scorch men.

Chanukah Dreidel Hanukkah

The Dreidel - Hanukkah spinning top

Hanukkah will rotate into the announcement of a hidden light.

Even his game over the infant becomes important shift in the symbolization of the history of Israel and the world

. Thus, I am referring to the top, dreidel, or spinning top, as you call it


. You will see below, aided by the wise commeRamban and his comment Bereshit 28:12; or Pirkei De Rabbi Eliezer 35; the Maharal Ner Mitzvah, the Bnei Yisasschar and Rav Nachman Bulman's comment, what is behind the dreidel, a fascinating history.

Its faces are four Hebrew letters
NOUN - Gimel - HEI - SHIN -
initials "Nes Gadol Haia Sham", that is to say, "A great miracle happened there "and that Israel is why we change the last letter, and instead of the Shin Pei is used for prayer is" A great miracle happened here (Po).

But there is more here than it seems .

In this verse from Genesis that I told you, ony says something about Iaakov: "Then I dreamed of, there is a staircase placed in the earth, whose top reached to heaven. The angels of God ascending
, descending on it. ".
Ramban, that is to say Najmánides, one of the most prominent mystics of our people, wrote that the fact that the angels ascended and descended, in the famous dream of our third patriarch, was locked up the History Am Israel. And that these angels were the guardians of the four great empires protectors, which in the future, dominate the Jewish people:
Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome
. So, the four letters that surround our toupiene would they not more than the graphic representation of these four empires and how?

The NOUN symbolizes Babylon, in the year-586.détruisit the Temple of Jerusalem, the physical connection of Israel with the Creator, the place that the fluid conveyed spiritual energy. The soul or the "Nefesh", a word that begins with that letter NOUN of Am Israel that this empire was damaged

The Gimel is represented by the exile of Persia ETDE Medes, recounted in the story of Esther. Through Haman, the empire tried to physically destroy the Jewish people. "Guf" is the Hebrew word for "body", that this empire almost succeeded in annihilating.

The SHIN is linked to Greece, just our history, in which the empire trying to dominate the "Sejel" (a word that begins with that letter), which is wisdom and knowledge of Israel. The attempted Hellenization of the Torah frustrated by the Maccabees.

The HEI ultimately means Rome. The empirequi claimed complete with everything "Hakol" with the "totality" of Jewish existence. Ilsdétruisirent again the Temple (the second) and with it the "nefesh", they almost complete our people after the battle at Betar and they leave us without "guf", and as heirs of the Hellenic world, which they then added as Christianity religion of the empire, they looked through it to convert to a New Israel by destroying the "sejel" Am Israel.

And so all powerful, these four letters, or entities, or empires, each written on a wall of the dreidel are all ultimately a shaky small point that lies at the base as if it ' was the letter "iud", the smallest of all and one that accurately represents the "yid", the "Jew". And

cepoint is like the Jewish people, much smaller but on which, very often, the world tourne.Vous just read the newspapers this semainepour you realize that it is so.

And as always, and although we do not notice the hand that moves the dreidel, and all existence, is the one above. And that same hand, in spite of strength, power, brilliance of so many empires (others use the same letters, but the call differently: Nebuchadnezzar, Gog, Haman to Seir), which has guaranteed that all that remains to tell the story is the same little people that all those tempted to bend.


Sameah Hag! ..
