Educational resources, videos and humor about Chanukah



 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 

Thursday evening, December 7, 2023.


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:

https://jr.co.il/hotsites/chanukah.htm


The Chanukah Video Page has links to over 1,200 cool Chanukah videos:

https://jr.co.il/videos/chanukah-videos.htm

The video page will be updated as we get closer to Chanukah. 


The Chanukah humor section has 130 items that will make you smile.
