Hanukkah: Love & Light
Colorful candles burning bright, each lit on eight very special nights.
Hanukkah is here! The first candle lighting began last night and today is the first day of Hanukkah. So grab your dreidel, it’s time to celebrate Hanukkah!
What Is Hanukkah? A History
Hanukkah celebrates the triumph of faith and courage over military might, when a band of Israelites stood up for their right to be Jewish. They were prohibited under penalty of death from studying their sacred texts or performing important mitzvot. Their holy Temple had been defiled, and they were ordered to worship other gods. A small band of faithful Israelites, known as the Maccabees, rose up and defeated the invaders, reclaimed the Temple, and rededicated it to God.
The eternal flame in the Temple’s great menorah (the lamp stand) had to be lit, but the Jews had only a one-day supply of the sacred olive oil needed to burn (which took 8 days to prepare). They decided, in faith, to light the flame anyway, and a great miracle occurred. The jug of oil refilled itself every day with enough oil to relight the Temple’s great menorah, and this continued for 7 days, the exact time it took to prepare new oil!
