Question
Is it preferable to light the Hanukkah candles at the entrance of the house visible from the street, where there is the advantage of having the mezuzah on the right and the Hanukkah candle on the left, or is it better to light them in the window facing the street, where they are clearly visible and the publicizing is more noticeable?
Answer
One should light in the window.
