On the first night of Chanukah, Rav Shlomo Katz shares a short, powerful prayer to say by the menorah.
Tonight is the 25th of Kislev, exactly three months after the 25th of Elul, the day the world was created. Our sages teach that after three months, an embryo’s form becomes recognizable. Standing by the candles on this night, Rav Shlomo invites us to ask a deeper question:
Can I see my true form?
Can I see the person Hashem dreamed me into being?
🕯️ Chanukah Night by Night — a series of short reflections to be said by the candles.
