Listen "Chanukah & Oil"
Episode Synopsis
Oil is central to the Chanukah celebration. We are celebrating how the oil of the Menorah in the Temple was only enough to last one day but miraculously lasted eight days. Many light their Menorah with oil candles while we eat oily foods such as latkes and donuts. Why is oil so important to the Chanukah story?
A fascinating discussion about oil, its unique role in Judaism and lessons we can take from oil.
