I'm spending New Years,
A Mystical Message about Chanukah from Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi (taken from the 11/28/2011 issue of Tikkun on-line from Rabbi Michael Lerner)
Several times the Bible tells us that God wants to have a place “to make His name dwell therein.” It’s interesting that it says not that ‘I will dwell there’ but that my Name will dwell there. While everything is God, in God, the whole cosmos is not separate from God; the point that a Temple makes is - that there is a concentrated, stronger focus of the quality of divinity for those who enter there. So while it is true that God is in everything there is, everything that is broadcasts its own quality: a Temple was a broadcasting tower from which a signal went out to the world.
