“Whoever makes their way to the modest plaza at the foot of the ancient stones and joins the tens of thousands who come to the Western Wall every day, sees that the Western Wall continues to be a place of connection and unity,” Rabbi Rabinowitz said in remarks during the ceremony.

“They see a place where prayers of every kind are recited alongside each other. They see traditional prayers and those that spontaneously erupt from the heart.Visitors admire the light emanating from the Hanukkah menorah at the Western Wall, first night of Hanukkah.

“Everyone is attracted to the Western Wall and to the light that shines from it onto the nation and out to the entire world. This year again, we will light the menorah at the Western Wall Plaza every night of Chanukah.

“Rabbis and leaders, the public, people from Israel and from the Diaspora will stand together and be blessed by the light of the candles, the light of the Western Wall, the light of unity and humility, the light of belonging and solidarity which will continue to illuminate humanity for all of eternity.”Dancing at the Western Wall as the first night of Hanukkah begins, Dec. 18, 2022

Speaking about the “huge privilege” of lighting the first Chanukah candle at the Western Wall, Mayor Leon noted the site is “the remnant of our Temple, where the miracle happened, in Jerusalem, the capital of a free and independent Israel, and to bless – with great joy and wholeheartedly – ‘He Who has granted us life, and sustained us, and brought us to this time.’

Chanukah is a festival of light, a celebration of miracles, and a festival of bravery. But the boldness of Hanukkah is not that of soldiers or physical courage.

The bravery of the Hasmoneans is of learners in a Beit Midrash who decided to fight for the privilege of living and returning the glory of Israel’s monarchy.”The first night of Hanukkah at the Western Wall in Jerusalem, where a giant menorah is kindled above the Western Wall Plaza, in addition to the lighting of the giant menorah next to the Western Wall itself.
