Psalms 83:2-4
"For behold, Your enemies make an uproar; those who hate You have raised their heads. They lay crafty plans against Your people...they say, 'Come, let us wipe them out as a nation. '"
They fear prophecy unfolding.
They fear Israel rising.
But it's too late.

“EIGHT FLAMES ONE LIGHT” is a conscious hip-hop cypher built on one of the most ancient — and least understood — traditions in Judean oral history:
the debate between Beit Hillel and Beit Shammai about how to light the menorah during Hanukkah.
Most people only know the modern custom:
Start with one flame, add more each night.
But the sages taught TWO paths:
🔥 House of Hillel:
Start with one flame → increase each night.
Why?
Because righteousness grows, holiness builds, and light expands.
“Go from lesser to greater.”
🔥 House of Shammai:
Start with eight flames → reduce each night.
Why?
Because creation began fully lit and descended to refinement.
And in the Messianic age — according to tradition —
we will follow Shammai’s rulings
because the world will finally understand divine order fully.
This track brings that debate to life like a lyrical showdown:
Shammai steps in with prophetic fire, counting down toward unity.
Hillel fires back with the expansion of goodness, lifting the light higher each night.
Together they land on the truth: two methods, one covenant, one Light.
This cypher blends hip-hop culture with ancient oral tradition, showing how debate is part of devotion — and how unity stands above disagreement.
Boom-bap drums, upright bass, Middle Eastern strings, vinyl crackle, and live-crowd cypher energy make this a performance-ready anthem for Hanukkah education.
It’s not just a track.
It’s a teaching, a tradition, a torch passed down.
Eight flames.
One Light.
One people.
