Award winning book

Beethoven was born December 17, 1770. His date of birth fell on the 7th day of Chanukah (Hanukkah) in the Hebrew month of Kislev. In John Chapter 10, we read about Yeshua showing up for this Festival of Lights. Although Hanukkah always begins on the 25th day of Kislev, that date can fall anywhere between late November and late December on the Gregorian calendar. Beethoven’s birth, name, and deafness all orchestrate a melody. And just like the celebration of Hanukkah, Beethoven shone his light in the darkness. Though he became deaf, his spirit man could hear music inside his soul. “The name Kislev derives from the Hebrew word kesel (כֶּסֶל). In Hebrew, the word for kidney is also kesel (כֶּסֶל).”
