Chanukah: The Return of the Shechina

What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Daniel Glatstein’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

looked they looked they searched they searched they couldn't find any oil that had not been contaminated until miraculously they were able to come up with one flask of oil unfortunately though that flask of oil was only enough to last for one night and they used it and it kept burning and burning and it lasted for eight nights and that's how we have of for eight nights and there's a very big problem over here and that is we know that that way the way God operates the world is that he doesn't like to change the laws of nature when Hashem created the world he set the laws of nature into place and God does not like to change them unless he has a good reason God likes the laws of nature to work their course to work the way they're supposed to work the sun rises in the east in the morning it sets in the West in the evening this amount of oil lasts for one day that amount of oil lasts for two days that amount of oil lasts for three days and the question we have to ask is why was it necessary for God to make this
