Can I Light My Chanukah Menorah on the Porch? | Daily Halacha #94

Many people today light their Chanukah Menorah downstairs at the entrance of the building, but what happens when there are already several menorahs there? And if you have a porch facing the street, is that actually a better place to light? In this Daily Halacha, Rabbi Yaacov Haber explains the two conditions for proper placement — pirsumei nisa (publicizing the miracle) and making sure the candles are clearly identified as yours. We look at the machlokes Rashi and Tosafos, and what contemporary poskim such as Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach and Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky say about lighting at the stairwell, in the window, or on the porch. This is especially relevant for anyone living in an apartment building in Eretz Yisrael or chutz la’aretz. 💬 Got a question or thought about today’s Halacha?
