Chanukah is the time of the re-dedication of the Holy Temple. The
festival commemorates the Maccabees' restoring the Second Temple to
its original sanctity after it had been ransacked and defiled (but
not destroyed) by the Greeks. It is, therefore, worth dedicating a
few minutes to consider how the Temple relates to us today. By this,
we mean, of course, the Third Temple, whose re-building and
long-awaited presence will usher in the Messianic Era |
