“You are witnessing Jewish history,” Singer Yishai Lapidot said as he performed for the audience during the candle lighting while the tallest skyscraper in the world displayed a dazzling light show behind him.
The event was hosted by Rabbi Levi Duchman of the UAE, who has been hosting Hanukkah in Dubai for the past six years.
“The message behind Hanukkah is to spread light over darkness. And I see the UAE as the brightest light in this region,” Rabbi Duchman told Gulf News on Wednesday.He added that the Jewish community would be celebrating Hanukkah with events “all over Dubai and Abu Dhabi,” in order to involve the wider community in the UAE as well.
