Description

The Braita of Mai Chanuka establishes that it was the miracle of the Pach Hashemen which served as the basis and reason for the establishment of Chanuka as a moed. Yet the Nusach of Al HaNissim expresses our gratitude for the military victory of the Chashmonaim over the Yevanim, omitting mention of the pach ha'shemen. We will study the Ramban and establish the two categories of Miracles. We will re-visit the Beit Yoseph's question regarding the celebration of 8 days of Chanuka.
