It is celebrated to remember the rededication of the Holy Temple 2,000 years ago after Maccabees regained control of the land of Israel from the Greeks. The Maccabees needed pure oil to relight the Menorah in the Holy Temple, but they could only find one small jug. The small quantity of oil from this jug miraculously burned for eight days. Chanukah is celebrated for eight days and begins on the 25th of the Jewish month of Kislev, which usually falls during December. Each night of Chanukah, we add another candle to the Menorah to remember the great miracle. The Shamash, or middle candle, is used to light all the other candles. We play Dreidel with Chanukah gelt (coins) and eat special holiday foods such as potato latkes or sufganiyot (doughnuts).
