Hanukkah, also known as the Festival of Lights, is a Jewish festival commemorating the recovery of Jerusalem and subsequent rededication of the Second Temple at the beginning of the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire in the 2nd century BCE.
To all my friends who are celebrating may this be a time of light and love and family. Grace and peace.
Just as a reminder there is more than one holiday being celebrated this time of year. Happy Holidays to all observing their cultural, religious and other celebrations.
