Shabbath Shalom. Chag Sameach!


The Chanukah candles are a classic example of holiness. The number of candles grow higher night by night, providing increasingly more light to dispell the darkness and for goodness to excell over evil. The message of Chanukah is that we also are empowered to use the intellectual and emotional powers of our soul at their highest level, to be a candle dispelling darkness. Just as we light the candles to shine outwards, to be seen by others, so also each of us in our lives should also be candles shining outwards, good examples of positive action to everyone in the world. [Chassidic sources]
