Question
Is it preferable to light the Chanukah candles at the entrance of the house, where they can be seen from the public domain, and there is the advantage of having the mezuzah on the right and the Chanukah candles on the left? Or is it better to prefer a window facing the public domain, where they are more visible and the publicizing of the miracle is more noticeable?
Answer
One should light at the window.
