One of the most widely discussed Chanuka topics is the matter of the length of the holiday. In this class we explore several very different perspectives, each of which provides unique insight and, hopefully, inspiration as well.
Lots of great discussion and insight on the story of Dinah's abduction and the subsequent attack on Shechem. Thank you to all our participants.
