Description

Can an onein give a hesped on Chanukah? Why is Chanukah a yom tov of torah shel ba'al peh? Does Hashem express conflicting views in halachah( eilu ve'eilu divrei...)? Is hallel ever biblical? Why is hallel recited on Chanukah but not on Purim? Was it proper for the Chashmonayim to assume the kingship? Why do we recite ve'al hanisim in tefilah and benching? Why are we obligated to observe minhagim? Which generation began lighting the Chanukah menorah? Can one light candles on foil without a menorah? A electric bulb? When should one recite she'asa nisim? At what time of day, where, and for how long should one light? On erev shabbat, does one need to rekindle an extinguished light? Does one light before or after havdalah?
