Description

in this Parsha & Chanuka shiur for VaYeishev we will attempt to establish the link between the light created on the 1st day of creation, the light created by Adam after the 1st Shabbos, the Ner of the מנורה of the Beis HaMikdash, the light of the Chanukas HaChasmonaim, and the ultimate light of the redemption at the time of the Mashiach. We will follow the sources collected on a page by HaRav Noach Olbaum shlita, and present the thesis of the Ba'al HaRoke'ach connecting the light of Chanuka and the אור הגנוז. We have spoken about this infinite light in earlier shiurim on Chanuka (here on YU Torah), but today we will see how the miracle of Chanuka is itself a creation of the אור הגנוז. Perhaps this will explain why the 1st day was also a נס
