Join Rabbi Dr. Stuart Fischman as he explores the idea of miracles in exile as opposed to miracles in the Land of Israel.
Purim: Miracles in Exile: Purim: Miracles in Exile
Hello Everyone,
There is a short passage in masechet Megillah ( and a parallel passage in masechet Arakhin) which discusses the question of Gemarah of saying Hallel on Purim. The Gemarah presents three explanations for our not saying Hallel, one of them being that we do not say Hallel for miracles said outside Eretz Yisrael.
Today we will study an analysis by the Lubavitcher Rebbe zt”l of this suggyah.
I look forward to studying this essay with you.
