Lesson Description

A story in the Talmud talks about Adam and Eve thinking that because they had fallen, they had caused the diminishment of the sun as the winter days became shorter, and that eventually there would be only physical and spiritual darkness left in the world. Adam fasted and prayed for eight days to change the trajectory of this fate, and then celebrated in joy for eight days after the solstice, when the days became longer once again. 

Join Michael as he explains how this story connects us to Chanukah and the unity of all people. We learn what it means to be on the path of the kabbalist and how choosing this as our job can bring joy and blessings to the entire world.
