[Music] so in exactly in a week is the the holiday of chanukah well not exactly because we're going to light the first candle sunday but even monday is the first day of kanoka so in a week we going to be celebrating the holy holiday of hanukkah and you know the holiday of hanukkah is one of the two holidays that again we were facing an annihilation a threat of being destroyed killed and taken away from our roots and there was a fight and there was a miracle i explained a few times in the past that our sages explained that when mashir is going to come all the holidays are going to be cancelled besides and purim and which of course called to a lot of arguments how can you say the holidays will be kansas i'm not saying anything by the way i'm just quoting the books but uh it's true because the torah is eternal and cannot be cancelled but there's many different explanations what does it mean but in the future latilla always means the coming there's many different explanations to it an interesting uh commentary an explanation i read a long time ago by the lubavitch rebbe that he says they're not going to physically be canceled rather the godly shine that is achieved by fulfilling the mitzvah will be accessible constantly without even doing the mitzvah so i'm going to be able to reach to the same godly revelation of filing mezuzah talit without doing the mitzvah it's going to be accessible to us 24 7 365 years of the 6 365 days of the year so tessa will be every day sukkot will be every day the godly shine which of course we eventually will have
