Chanuka: The Light of the Menorah - Hope in Galus - a podcast by AK Publishers

Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn Ztl on חנוכה.
Discussed:
- Three Questions on Chanukah; Chazal tell us that Purim marks the end of prophecy and super-natural miracles yet we see by the Chanukah story, which takes place centuries later, they still had a supernatural miracle occur? Secondly, all the miracles until Chanukah revolved around the salvation of the Jews, yet the miracle of the burning oil was simply helping the performance of a Mitzvah? Finally, why would Hashem make a miracle for the burning of the oil if the Jews could have also used the impure oil, due to the principal of Tuma Hutra Bitzibur?
- Reb Mottel Progimonsky explains Rashi, who writes that we see the great reward of Tzadikim from the fact that Yosef was sold to a spice caravan, and was spared a foul odor on his trip down to Mitzrayim. What is this great reward? Yosef was in the process of being betrayed by his own brother's, did he really care how the caravan smelled?
