Hanukkah and the Triumph of Light in Jewish History
Dr. Joseph Moses, rabbi of Temple Hadar Israel in New Castle, reflects on the Hanukkah miracle. He notes the Maccabean revolt led to Jerusalem’s liberation and a renewed temple, followed by eight nights of lighting the menorah as an enduring symbol. The piece links Hanukkah to broader traditions of light across major Western faiths.
