Description

Zos Chanukah is the final sealing of judgments, making it a powerful time for davening, especially for shidduchim. Yoseph knew how to keep the Torah while away from home in galus (exile). When we have no sechel (intellect) we are detached from Hashem. Yoseph never drank wine from the moment he left his home to go into exile. Yoseph is the struggle of our generation as we try to stay loyal to Torah values, while Yehudah is the Jew in yeshiva, in Eretz Yisrael. The avodah (holy work) of Zos Chanukah is to seal ourselves in our own 'Goshens' so that we become fully revealed.
