The Miracle of the Oil

B"H

Regarding Chanukkah, the Talmud speaks of the miracle of the oil. We celebrate the oil because it was G - d's means of showing us what we would otherwise not have known - that it was He who delivered the strong, many, and wanton into the hands of those who were weak and few but who fought for the sake of G - d's Torah.

This year, we are going to celebrate the first day of Chanukkah on December 2.
