Dec. 15, 2006 - Chanukah Readings for my Family, Night One
Chanukah begins at sundown on December 15th.
Night 1: The L-rd is Our Light
Isaiah 60:19
The sun will no more be your light by day,
nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you,
for the L-RD will be your everlasting light,
and your G-d will be your glory.
Psalm 27
The L-RD is my light and my salvation—
whom shall I fear?
The L-RD is the stronghold of my life—
of whom shall I be afraid?
3 Though an army besiege me,
my heart will not fear;
though war break out against me,
even then will I be confident.
4 One thing I ask of the L-RD,
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the L-RD
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the L-RD
and to seek him in his temple.
7 Hear my voice when I call, O L-RD;
be merciful to me and answer me.
8 My heart says of You, "Seek his face!"
Your face, L-RD, I will seek.
11 Teach me Your way, O L-RD;
lead me in a straight path
because of my oppressors.
13 I am still confident of this:
I will see the goodness of the L-RD
in the land of the living.
14 Wait for the L-RD;
be strong and take heart
and wait for the L-RD.
