“..So how do we retell these stories that are complicated? And teach them in a way that uplifts us and moves us forward with greater integrity?” 

– Rabbi Bluth

In preparation to launch 8 nights of meditations which accompany the art and teachings in our Living Jewishly Chanukah guide (available for download here: https://www.schooloflivingjewishly.com/chanukah-guide), Rabbi Bluth and Jessie Duke come together for a short conversation about the teachings of Chanukah.

This episode discusses:

• Where and how Chanukah is situated in the Hebrew calendar, and what that means for us
• Themes of darkness and light
• What Chanukah literally means, as well as metaphorically 
• The benefits of making holidays (in the case, Chanukah) your own
• How to work with the Chanukah guide
