A while ago RYBG cited on this forum AZ 8b regarding the shortening and lengthening of daylight during the winter.
R. Menachem Leibtag relates this to Chanukah in a particularly enlightening shiur:

The second shiur which appears is the one I'm referring to; I prefer to link to this page because the other shiurim on Chanukah linked to there are excellent as well.
