Torah Ohr – Ner Chanukah

“Ner Chanukah” is a distinguished maamar from the Chassidic text “Torah Ohr,” delivered by the Alter Rebbe, Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi. This discourse focuses on the spiritual significance of the Chanukah lights and their role in illuminating both the physical and spiritual realms. The maamar delves into the deeper meanings behind the mitzvah of lighting the Chanukah menorah, exploring themes of divine light overcoming darkness, the concept of inner spiritual illumination, and the transformative power of mitzvot. “Ner Chanukah” provides profound insights into how the Chanukah lights symbolize the revelation of divine energy and its impact on enhancing spiritual awareness and connection.
