Special Chanukah Series: LOVE, LIGHTS, HANUKKAH! : Fascinating secrets of our Festival of Lights are embedded into the Talmud's account of Chanukah as well as in the Al Hanissim prayer formula. This fourth and final episode of the series mines the unique syntax of both as well as the names and materials that appear in the narrative. This incredible presentation will dig deep to uncover the "real dirt" on Chanukah, because in truth it far broader than just Tainted Oil! Drawing on a wide range of sources insightful pieced together a new panorama emerges. Here we will hydrate and moisten the fertile soil of the story so that fresh growth can blossom! Ultimately, Chanukah goes far beyond a courageous battle against a brutal occupation by a Foreign Power. In fact, it was (and in many ways still is!) an ideological struggle over the very Soul of Israel. The enemy sought (and still seeks!) to extinguish our Flame by Dirtying our Water. Chanukah is about our miraculous victory against those very dark forces. Then, and forever! Rabbi Mendel Kaplen
