Let Every One who is Zealous for the Torah who stands by the covenants follow after me. 1 Makabim 2:27-28 Read the book of Makabim Hebrew Text: מגילת אנטיוכוס -חנוכה Maccabees IMPORTANT NOTE: since the only text below we have today for this book was translated and transmitted by Christian sources, the present text may well contain intentional errors. Information the Hellenistic world Watch the History of Hanukkah now!
Yeshua is the Shamash! (Yochanan 10:22) "And it was at Jerusalem the feast of Hannakah, and it was winter." Comment:The Maccabees (Hebrew: מכבים or מקבים, Makabim) were a Yehudi national liberation movement that fought for and won independence from Antiochus IV Epiphanes of the Hellenistic Seleucid dynasty, who was succeeded by his infant son Antiochus V Eupator. The Makabim founded the Hasmonean royal dynasty and established Yehudi independence in ha Eretz Yisrael for about one hundred years, from 164 BCE to 63 BCE.The Chag Yehudi there two feast that are not Moedim feast Purim and Hannukah. The Purim remember how the wicked Haman seek to destroy Yehudim physically while the Hannukah was to destroy the Yehudim spiritually. In the Jewish feast there two feast that are not Moedim feast Purim and Hannukah. The Purim remember how the wicked Haman seek to destroy Jews physically while the Hannukah was to destroy the Jews spiritually.
This was instituted in 165 B.C. by Judas Maccabeus in commemoration of the cleansing and reopening of the Temple after its desecration by the Syrian ruler Antiochus Epiphanes in 168 B.C. (Dan. 11:21-31; 1 Macc. 4:52-59). It is also called the Feast of Lights, or feast of delicate. The date fall Keslev 25 for 8 days. Because of this reason Messiah Yeshua told His people (Jewish people)"And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand." The Misconception of Hanukah exchange gifts
Do Tzedakah for the less priviledge Jews exchange gifts on Hanukkah, it is a misconception that Hanukkah is the "Jewish Christmas." In fact, the custom originated from the Jewish practice of "tzedakah," or charity. The Talmud instructs every Jew to light a candle on Hanukkah, and those that cannot afford a candle are required to go "knocking on doors" until they have raised enough. The Talmud also instructs Jews to give charity to those in need and to preserve their dignity at the same time.It is said that the custom of giving Hanukkah gelt arose from the need to shelter poor people from the shame of begging. Holidays preserve the memory of significant events, and traditions continue the practice of cherished values. Hanukkah is a time for family, celebration and joy -- and also a time for remembering the reasons for celebrating. The light of the Hanukkah candles is a reminder of past miracles, and of the continuing pursuit of peaceful Jewish ideals. Moshiach Yeshua is our Light bearer : He is THE LIGHT(Yochanan 8:12) "Then spake Yeshua again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." Adonay here draws an analogy between the sun as the physical light of the world and Himself as the spiritual light of the world (see 9:4-5; 11:9-10).

Shemot 21:1-6; Lev. 25:44-46; Amos 2:6; 8:6 Dvarim 15:1-18 Foot washing is to be our focus on humility, Messiah Yeshua said ' I have given you an example that you should do as I have done to you (Yochanan 13:15). Foot washing was a customary practice in Messiah's time, usually a servant beingstationed to wash the feet of guests entering a home after trudging a town's dusty streets (Lk 7:44; 1 Tim 5:10; Matt 10:14; Act 13:51) Messiah Yeshua must have arranged with the owner of the house for a servant not to be present when all things had been prepared for the occasion, His last supper, because He had a vital lession on humility for them and us to learn.
