Hanukah Hub

TEXT: Hanukah Hub IMAGE: Many hanukkiah burning at our Hanukah CelebrationOn Hanukah, we remember when the Jews rededicated the Temple in Jerusalem after Judah and the Macabees defeated the Syrian-Greek army.

When the Jews went to light the Temple’s menorah after their victory, there was only a one-day supply of oil left, but miraculously it lasted for eight nights!

So today, we light candles for eight nights and celebrate religious freedom. We play dreidel, eat chocolate coins, give gifts, and eat foods fried in oil to remind of us the miracle at the rededication of the Temple.

We hope you'll join us to eat latkes and sufganiyot or celebrate Hanukah in a way meaningful to you and your loved ones!
