The Greeks and the Jews: How All Wisdom Flows From and Returns to Hashem; Loyalty and Surrender, Not Logic, Define JudaismThis text-based class of the Maamar Mai Chanukah, was said by the Sixth Lubavitcher Rebbe, the Rebbe Rayatz, on Shabbos Miketz, Shabbos Chanukah, 28 Kislev, 5701, December 28, 1940. The class was presented by Rabbi YY Jacobson on Monday, 25 Kislev, 5786, December 15, 2025, at Bais Medrash Ohr Chaim in Monsey, NY. This incredible discourse explains the conflict of the Greeks against the Jews in our internal heart and mind, and why the focus of the battle was on the oil, representing the inner "fatness," delight, and pleasure that comes from embodying the Divine. The discourse, vivid in language, breaks down how we can sometimes Learn Torah, observe Mitzvos, and yet still be living in the paradigm of the Greeks. The Maamar explores two forms of wisdom, the one that is based on the egoic mind, and the ones that flows from Divine infinity and oness, and returns there.
