Sermon: Rev. Mark Stein
Scripture: The Talmud, and related biblical and apocryphal writings
First Sunday in Advent/Hanukkah
Hanukkah is the eight-day Jewish Festival of Lights, honoring the story of the Dedication as depicted in the Talmud and other Biblical and Apocryphal writings.
Metaphysically, Hanukkah is about transcending our material existence, and embracing our spiritual nature as we grow to understand the principles of Natural Law. Hanukkah teaches us about appreciating what we have, even if it seems limited at times, while trusting in the abundance of God’s universe. It also teaches us about having gratitude for all of the blessings and freedoms, both physical and spiritual, humanity has strived for over the millennia, and which we continue to work toward today.
