Hanukkah - the Light that Lights the Way The Meaning of Hanukkah The candles of the Hanukkah menorah remind us of the legend that God caused a small amount of consecrated oil to burn in the Temple for eight days until more could be procured. But they are much more than that. The Hanukkah lights teach us that when we obediently offer our small light to God for the sake of His truth, He can make it shine more brightly in the darkness than we could possibly have imagined (John 8:12).

Hanukkah A parent came in to teach us about Hanukkah, a holiday celebrated all over the world by Jewish people. First she read us a story about Hanukkah and how it began. Then she read a funny Hanukkah story, The Trees of the Dancing Goats by Patricia Polacco. She showed us several different menorahs. Each one held eight candles to represent the eight days of Hanukkah and one more candle, the sham ash, used to light the others. She gave each of us a bag of Hanukkah gelt (chocolate money) and a dreidel. She taught us how to play dreidel. The dreidel had four Hebrew letters representing the words "a great miracle happened here". Each Hebrew letter on the dreidel had a rule. Nun means win none. Shin means put in one. Hay means win half. Gimmel means win all. Some of us played alone so we wouldn't lose our chocolate! Others played in groups and agreed to divide the chocolate fairly at the end. We listened to Hanukkah music as we played. It was fun!

A Megillah for Hanukkah? Many communities in the past read a scroll on Hanukkah , and the author recommends reviving a form of the custom. By Rabbi David Golinkin Chanting the Purim megillah (scroll) is a central part of that festival. The author of this piece examines the history of a similar custom for Hanukkah and recommends enacting a modern version of this tradition: Reading the First Book of Maccabees , an ancient work that was not included in the canonical Hebrew Bible but which has survived and is studied by many scholars nonetheless. Excerpted with permission from the website of the Schechter Institute of Jewish Studies There is one custom which we would expect to find on Hanukkah that is missingthe reading of a scroll in public. After all, on Purim we read the Scroll of Esther every year in order to publicize the miracle. Why don't we read a scroll on Hanukkah in order to publicize the miracles which God wrought for our ancestors in the days of Matityahu [the priest central to the Hanukkah story] and his sons [the Maccabees]? The result is that most Jews only know the legend about the miracle of the cruse of oil ( Shabbat 21b) and not about the actual military victories of the Maccabees.

Two First-Rate Educators Take On The Many Meanings of Hanukkah A DIFFERENT LIGHT, THE HANUKKAH BOOK OF CELEBRATION edited by Noam Zion and Barbara Spector, 2000. 264 pages, $27.95; and A DIFFERENT LIGHT, THE BIG BOOK OF HANUKKAH edited by Noam Zion and Barbara Spector, 2000, 342 pages, $27.95. Both books: $45 Devorah Publishing Co., N.Y. and the Shalom Hartman Institute, Jerusalem, Israel. Reviewed by Rabbi Jack Riemer A few years ago Noam Zion published 'A Different Night', which was a wonderful Passover Haggadah, chock full of interesting ideas with which to make the Seder more meaningful. Now, together with Barbara Spector, he has edited two more books whose goal is to make the holiday of Hanukkah more understandable and more enjoyable. The task this time is probably more difficult, because Passover has a clear message and a basic text. Hanukkah has many messages, some of them contradictory, and it does not have anything like the Haggadah that everyone knows and that everyone recites. And yet the editors of this book have done just as creative and just as impressive a job with Hannukah as one of them did with Pesach. The first thing you need to know in approaching this book is that down through the centuries Hanukkah has had many meanings. Whatever it meant originally is something that scholars can and do argue about. It was probably not so much a war against the external enemy as it was a civil war between the Jews. And if that is what it originally was, that is a scary thing to think about in this age of polarization and divisiveness in which we now live.

52. COEJL Hanukkah: A Solar Ner Tamid: The Ultimate Rededication The cost was around $3500 for the entire installation. It was a small price to payfor its symbolic values to teach about Judaism and environmental issues. . http://www.coejl.org/Hanukkah/documents/solarnertamid.shtml

A Solar Ner Tamid: The Ultimate Rededication A new and meaningful way to rededicate your synagogue is by installing a Solar Ner Tamid. The concept is a simple one: to power this holy light with clean, renewable energy by installing a solar panel. (There is a battery backup for rainy days.) Although this is a relatively new idea, several congregations across North America are already using them. Temple Emanuel of the Greater Washington area has been using their Solar Ner Tamid for seven years in addition to completing regular energy audits. Rabbi Warren Stone of Temple Emanuel (and also a COEJL Board member!) recalls, "When we were redesigning our sanctuary we sought out a solar energy company to help us install solar panels on the synagogue roof to illuminate our Ner Tamid. When I approached the CEO of Solarax in Frederick, Maryland and told him of our plan, he became very excited about the prospect, as he was an orthodox Jew himself. The cost was around $3500 for the entire installation. It was a small price to pay for its symbolic values to teach about Judaism and environmental issues." Rabbi Stone also chairs the Central Conference of American Rabbis' committee on the environment, and was instrumental in the resolution passed at the CCAR 2000 conference calling for Reform congregations to develop environmental policies and consider installing a Solar Ner Tamid. He shares that the Solar Ner Tamid sets an important example, as it serves "to teach Jewish concern for the earth and our responsibility for using resources wisely."

53. COEJL Hanukkah: L'Or V'Or, L'Dor V'Dor hanukkah is a time where we celebrate the renewal of the eternal flame and rededicationin Adapted from Renewing Creation Daily, Let the Earth teach You Torah http://www.coejl.org/Hanukkah/documents/lorvor.shtml

L'Or v'Or, L'Dor v'Dor From Light to Light, From Generation to Generation Created by Barbara Lerman-Golomb Goal: To have an intergenerational discussion about issues of the environment and energy. This should take place during Hanukkah between a child and a parent/grandparent/senior citizen friend. The pair should follow this sheet to guide them through the activity. The bullet points mark specific questions or points to address as you read. (You can also adapt this for a larger group of mixed ages.) Candle lighting: Before lighting the Hanukkiah as usual, find an extra candle to set up separately nearby. (It can be a long burning candle, etc. The important thing is that it isn't part of the Hanukkiah; traditionally we don't use the light from the eight ritual candles for functional purposes. The shammash however, may be used, as it is only used to light the Hanukkiah.) Light the Hanukkah candles and recite the usual brachot. Then, with the shammash, light the other candle. Hanukkah is a time where we celebrate the renewal of the eternal flame and rededication in the Temple. In modern times, our Temple is the planet earth and like the Maccabees, we need to defend our right for cleaner, sustainable energy to preserve it. Like the Maccabee, we know it's the right thing to do. And like the eternal flame, renewable energy sources will carry on from generation to generation. This candle, an "Or Chadash" or new light, symbolizes our rededication to this cause. Recite together the following Yotzer Or prayer from the daily morning service:

HOME about jhom.com webdesign advertise ... contact us Storyteller and author Chaim Potok recalls a Hanukkah he celebrated as a child in New York in 1938. It was the eve of the Holocaust, one month after the infamous Kristallnacht. Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights. It commemorates an ancient Jewish rebellion against oppression, during which the Temple in Jerusalem was miraculously recaptured from pagan hellenizers and rededicated to the worship of God. The candles of Hanukkah celebrate that rededication. They also help brighten the long winter nights. But I remember a Hanukkah when darkness almost overpowered the light. It was the first week of November 1938. The final years of the Depression lay like a polluting mist across the streets of New York. On afternoons when it did not rain, I would play on the sidewalk in front of the plate-glass window of the candy store near our apartment house. The bubble of darkness on the other side of the world bumped only vaguely against my consciousness. I was very young then, interested more in Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers than Adolf Hitler. One afternoon I was near the candy store, in the cardboard box that was my rocket ship, when an elderly couple walked slowly by; I caught some of their frightened words. Before supper that evening I saw my mother standing over the kitchen sink, her head bowed and heard her whispering agitatedly to herself. Later, my father came home from work, drenched in weariness; he turned on the radio and became wearier still.
