Shalom aleichem Rabbi Lauffer. Happy Chanukah. Thank you for answering my last question. Would it be mutar to place the menorah used for lighting Chanukah candles on a "Hanukkah Glass Menorah Drip Tray" https://www.amazon.com/Rite-Lite-Tempered-Glass-Menorah/dp/B00PBFBUOO even if the drip tray has brachos on it, or would this be not proper because you are placing an object on the words of brachos and the wax will fall on them? Thanks a lot.

Hi Rabbi, do you have an inspiring story to share with me?

Dear Rabbi, if one has a set of small red, green, blue, and yellow Chanukah candles, does it matter in which order they are placed in the menorah? And from which side do you light them, as you look toward the menorah?

What is the message of Chanukah for our contemporary society?

What does the word “Chanukah” mean?

Is it customary to give presents on Chanukah?

What is a "dreidel" and its connection to Chanukah?
