And he made the Menorah of pure gold, hammered out did he make the Menorah, its base, and its shaft; its cups, its knobs, and its flowers, were from it.
EXODUS (37:17)
וַיַּעַשׂ אֶת הַמְּנֹרָה זָהָב טָהוֹר מִקְשָׁה עָשָׂה אֶת הַמְּנֹרָה יְרֵכָהּ וְקָנָהּ גְּבִיעֶיהָ כַּפְתֹּרֶיהָ וּפְרָחֶיהָ מִמֶּנָּה הָיוּ
שמות לז:יז

The Menorah was made of pure gold and was lit with pure olive oil. Its radiant light symbolized the Jewish nation's duty to spread the light of Torah. The purest elements of gold and oil were used to impress upon the people that one must have pure intentions to come closer to God and to influence the nations of the world for the sake of Heaven. Tap into the spiritual essence of the upcoming holiday of Chanukah with your very own Menorah, spreading light from the Holy Land.

Greetings from Oudtshoorn, South Africa. My name is Ingrid and I joined yesterday. We are starved of reliable honest news from Israel and am hoping your website will correct any misconceptions we may have of what is happening there and/or why. Thanking you. Kind regards |
