Hanukkah

- Oy to the World: the History, the Legend, the Holiday

Om Hanukkah

The greatest Hanukkah miracle is not the renewal of the Temple, nor the oil that burned 8 days. Nor can it be found in any history book, or through archeological digs. Yet it can be easily seen in the windows of Jews around the world on winter nights as they remember the faith of Alexander the Great, Messiah of the Jews and the victories of that famous Warrior Priest, Judah Maccabee - and continue their joyful defiance in defense and renewal of their faith today... ...by enjoying eggrolls and jelly donuts with Hanukkah Harry under the Hanukkah Bush. By reading myths and legends you will learn to read the prayers spelled out by each fall of the dreidel; by understanding how and why to ignite each flame in the Menorah, the history and present urgency of that ancient Jewish revolt is understood. Hanukkah has always been a controversial holiday, and its joyful celebration is a necessary act of defiance to conclude Rosh Hashanah: by a courageous defense and renewal of Judaism Jewish faith is given meaning, for it is thereby possible to today learn about the history, legend, and faith in Hanukkah. Contents: Folklore Alexander Messiah Rise and Fall of Seleucus Books of Maccabees Judah Maccabee Hanukkah Menorah Dreidel Hanukkah in Americ
