Israeli Chanukah Logos and Posters

Hi Everyone!

The Chanukah miracles happened here in Israel and the
reminders are everywhere.

I created a new "Only in Israel" page which displays
30 Israeli Chanukah logos and posters.
https://jr.co.il/only-in-israel/israeli-chanukah-logos-and-posters.htm

If you live outside of Israel, you may not have a sense on
how Jewish holidays are celebrated and honored in our
Jewish homeland. This will give you a small insight.

Please share. Thank you.

Chanukah Sameach and Shabbat Shalom,
Jacob Richman

Educational resources about Chanukah and over 800 Chanukah videos

Hi Everyone!

Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is observed for
eight days, beginning on the evening of the 25th day of
the Hebrew month of Kislev. This year Chanukah starts
Sunday night, December 22, 2019.

Chanukah is a wonderful holiday of renewed dedication,
faith, hope and spiritual light. It's a holiday that says:
"Never lose hope." Chanukah commemorates the victory of a
small band of Maccabees over the pagan Syrian-Greeks who
ruled over Israel.

The Chanukah Page includes lesson sites in several languages,
videos, songs, Chanukah trivia quiz, English Hebrew vocabulary lists,
recipes, games, humor, photos, clipart, coloring pages and
a map of the sites of the Maccabees 166-161 BCE.

The address is:
