Happy Hanukkah, A Festival Of Faith and Light – #hanukkah #jewish
Hanukkah is celebrated around the world for eight days and nights. Hanukkah celebrates the victory of the Maccabees or Israelites over the Greek-Syrian ruler, Antiochus about 2200 years ago. A Menorah is a special nine-branched candelabrum, also known in Hebrew as a Hanukiah.
To all my Jewish friends and fellow bloggers who are celebrating this time of faith, light and love have a wonderful time of being together in family and community.
Happy Rosh Hashanah To The Jewish Community Around The World #roshhashanah #jewish
Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year festival, held on the first (also sometimes the second) day of Tishri (in September). It is marked by the blowing of the shofar, and begins the ten days of penitence culminating in Yom Kippur. This year’s festival begins in the evening of Sunday, October 2 and ends in the evening of Tuesday, October 4.
Grace and peace to my Jewish friends who are celebrating. I wish you grace, peace and love during this time.
Happy Passover/Pesach
Pesach, known as Passover in English, is a major Jewish spring festival, commemorating the Exodus from Egypt over 3,000 years ago.
To my Jewish friends and others celebrating I pray for the peace of God to be with you during this celebration. May your Seder and other observances be filled with a remembrance, reflection and love.
Happy Hanukkah
(From My Jewish Learning) Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights.
It commemorates the victory of the ancient Israelites over the Syrian Greek army, and the subsequent miracle of restoring the menorah in the Holy Temple in Jerusalem.
The miracle of Hanukkah is that only one vial of oil was found with just enough oil for one day, and yet it lasted for eight full days.
Happy Hanukkah to my Jewish friends and others who observe this holiday.
