Why the Hellenists defiled the oil | (MITZVAS NER CHANUKAH Class 2)

Description

Our connection to the mitzvos--even those that have reasons that we can understand--is ultimately suprarational. It is this level of devotion to Hashem's will that the Hellenists sought to eradicate as symbolized by their purposely defiling the oil in the Temple. Chapters 4-6 of the maamar Tanu Rabanan Mitzvas Ner Chanukah 5738. ***PDF of maamar text: https://w2.chabad.org/media/pdf/1026/gjVw10267635.pdf For more classes from Rabbi Shais Taub visit https://www.soulwords.org/ 👉 Share & Connect: Follow on Instagram: instagram.com/rabbi_shais_taub Follow on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rabbi_shais_taub Subscribe to WhatsApp: https://wa.me/15164953021/?text=Subscribe 👉 Support our work at: https://www.soulwords.org/donate/ --OR-- PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/soulwordspayments CashApp: https://cash.app/$soulwords Venmo: https://venmo.com/u/soulwords
