On December 5th, Cha- nukah, also known as the Feast of Lights, begins. This festival lasts 8 days and commemorates the vic- tory of the Maccabees over the Syrians in 165 B.C., after a three-year struggle. The victorious Jews held festivities in the Temple of Jerusalem after overthrow- ing the Syrians, rededicat- ing their temple ta Gad. Each year the Jewlsh people celebrate the feast of Chanukah by exchang- ing gifts, giving to the poor, enjoying special dishes and lighting the 8-branched Chanukah menorah, a can- delabrum used especially for the occasion, Chanukah: 4 Time for Festivities On the first evening of the Chanukah season, one candle is lit and a tradition- al prayer is said. On each following evening an addi- tional candle is lit, until all eight candles gleam on the last evening. Chamuakah is an especial- ly joyful time for children; in addition to receiving gifts, there are traditional games to be played, Not to mention all the delicious food that is served during this season, including pas- tries and candies. Chanukah ~ (sometimes spelled Hanukkah ) lasts for vight days, in honor of the temple lights that remained miraculously lit for eight days and nights after the victorious the Maccabees.
