Kislev 5781/ December 2020
“Hanukkah is the festival on which Jews celebrate their victory in the fight for religious freedom more than two thousand years ago. Tragically that fight is no less important today – and not only for Jews, but for people of all faiths.”
The late Rabbi Lord Jonathon Sacks
