Galus is compared to a dream in which contradictions coexist, allowing us to seize any mitzvah opportunity without delay. The name Ephraim reveals how struggle and exile generate a deeper fruitfulness, through full engagement with the physical world. The differences between the Menorah in the Bais HaMikdash and the Chanukah lights highlight the mission to illuminate the public domain, expand light daily, and serve as Hashem’s ambassadors in the world’s darkness. Chanukah’s unique level of "mehadrin min hamehadrin" reflects a service of pure love, choosing unnecessary spiritual excellence and true selflessness simply because that is Hashem’s will. This class, taught by Rabbi Shais Taub, is based on Parshas Mikeitz in Likkutei Sichos Vol. 1.
