Happy Hanukkah to my fellow Jewish preppers! The festival of lights is alive and well at Kookish kabin!
Hanukkah the Festival of Lights.
"...The Talmud presents three options:
The law requires only one light each night per household,
A better practice is to light one light each night for each member of the household
The most preferred practice is to vary the number of lights each night.
Except in times of danger, the lights were to be placed outside one's door, on the opposite side of the Mezuza, or in the window closest to the street. Rashi, in a note to Shabbat 21b, says their purpose is to publicize the miracle..."
I am honored to write that the oldest Synagog and Hebrew cemetery in the USA is in the state of Rhode Island. Newport to be specific.
חַג שָׂמֵחַ (Happy Holiday) to my Jewish preppers.
