When to light Most communities light the menorah shortly after sunset. In other communities, the menorah is kindled after nightfall. For more information please see When to light the Menorah Reply

Thank you I never knew to much about hanukkah thank you for the web site and all the information. If we could all just learn a little more about each religion the world will be a better place. Reply
where to get oil or candles You can use regular olive oil like you buy in the grocery store. For candles, you can use any candle that burns long enough to stay lit for at least half an hour into the night. Reply

To BGoldman: There is a Talmudic rule, "every turn that you take should be toward the right." When we light the right candle on the first night, and then each night light toward the right, we are in accordance with this custom. Reply
