Photos of The Giant Chanukiah in Mevaseret Adumim

Posted on December 2, 2013 by Jacob

Hi Everyone!

On Monday night, 6th candle lighting of Chanukah, a group of
enthusiastic youths from Maale Adumim built a giant Chanukiah
in Mevaseret Adumim.

The Chanukiah was made with approximately 400 tealight candles
with sand in falafel bags placed on the side of the mountain.
This was a unique way to publicize the miracle of Chanukah.

Thanks to Chava Docks who sent me the photos which I placed online at:

Enjoy the photos.

Chanukah Sameach and Chodesh Tov,
Jacob
