Merry Christmas
Chanukah
Chanukah begins on the eve of Kislev 25 and continues for eight days. On the civil calendar, it generally coincides with the month of
December. Chanukah 2025 runs from the evening of Sun, December 14 through Mon, December 22.
In the second century BCE, the Holy land was ruled by the Seleucids (Syrian-Greeks), who tried to force the people of Israel to except Greek
culture and beliefs instead of mitzvah observance and believe in G-d. Against all odds, a small band of faithful but poorly armed Jews, led by Judah
the Maccabee, defeated one of the mightiest armies on earth, drove the Greeks from the land, reclaimed the Holy Temple in Jerusalem and
rededicated it to the service of G-d.
When they sought to light the TempleĆs Menorah (the seven-branded candelabrum), they found only a single cruse of olive oil that had escaped
contaminated by the Greeks. Miraculously, they lit the menorah and the one-day supply of the oil lasted for eight days, until new oil could be
prepared under conditions of ritual purity.
