  • Celebrating Hanukkah
    Celebrating Hanukkah Hanukkah Means Dedication The eight-day festival of Hanukkah is celebrated beginning on the 25 of Kislev, a month on the lunar Hebrew calendar that usually falls between the end of November and the end of December on the solar standard calendar. Hanukkah means “dedication,” and the holiday commemorates the rededication of the Temple in Jerusalem after the defeat of the Syrian- Greeks in 165 BC. The Syrian-Greek emperor Antiochus IV tried to force the Greek culture and religion upon the Jewish people under his rule. In 168 BC, he declared that the Temple holy to the Jews would be used for the worship of the god Zeus. Soon after, he completely outlawed Judaism and made its practice punishable by death. Mattathias, the High Priest in the Temple, and his sons refused to give up their religion and led a revolt against the Greeks. Mattathias, his family, and those who joined them were called Maccabees (MAC-ah-bees) because Yahuda, Mattathias’ oldest son, was a powerful warrior nicknamed Ha’Maccabee (Ha-MAC-ah-bee), ancient Hebrew for “the Hammer.” The Miracle of the Oil Although they were outnumbered, the Maccabees defeated the Greeks after several years of fighting and reclaimed the Temple. As they prepared to rededicate their defiled Temple, the Jews found only enough pure oil to light the Eternal Light for one day. The oil miraculously lasted for eight days, allowing time for more oil to be pressed from olives and purified for use. The hanukkiyah (ha-NOO-kee-yuh) is a special menorah used only during Hanukkah.

  • HANUKKAH in the WORKPLACE Inclusive Employer Guide
    HANUKKAH IN THE WORKPLACE Inclusive Employer Guide EQUITY · DIVERSITY · INCLUSION What is Hanukkah? Hanukkah is the eight-day Jewish celebration also called the festival of lights. The date for this festival changes according to the lunar calendar, but it always begins in November or December. In 2020, Hanukkah begins in the evening on December 10th and ends in the evening on December 18th. What does Hanukkah mean, and what does the day commemorate? The Hebrew word Chanukah means “rededication”. Hanukkah celebrates the victory of a small band of Jewish fighters, led by Judah the Maccabee, who battled Syrian-Greek forces in 167 BCE for the right to observe Jewish customs. It also commemorates the liberation and rededication of the Jewish temple in Jerusalem. In the temple was a menorah (a candelabrum), meant to burn day and night to symbolize the light of God’s presence. When the Maccabees went to relight it, they found only enough clean oil for one night. Miraculously, it instead lasted for eight days, until new oil could be prepared. How is Hanukkah observed? To symbolize the miracle, Hanukkah is celebrated by lighting a candle on the nine-branch menorah at sunset each night of the festival. A Hanukkah menorah, usually placed in a window or doorway, is called a Hanukkiah. Most observers will say a blessing as the menorah is lit and may sing traditional Hanukkah songs afterwards. Hanukkiot (plural) are also lit in synagogues and other public places. In commemoration of the legendary oil, it is a Hanukkah tradition to eat fried foods. Latkes (potato pancakes) are a favourite, as are sufganiyot (fried jelly doughnuts).
