Shalom and welcome,
In the hustle of daily life, setting aside moments for reflection and connection can be transformative. Candle lighting on Friday evening offers such a moment, an oasis of peace as we usher in the Shabbat. The Talmud teaches that lighting Shabbat candles serves a dual purpose: Shalom Bayit, ensuring peace and harmony in the home, and Oneg Shabbat, enhancing the joy and pleasure of Shabbat.
When lighting candles, we invite in more than just physical light; we welcome a spiritual illumination that has the power to brighten our homes and hearts. It’s a time to pause, to breathe, and to appreciate the blessings of the past week while anticipating the tranquility and rejuvenation that Shabbat promises.
Let us embrace this cherished mitzvah, knowing that with each flicker of the flame, we connect to generations past and kindle hope for the future.
