Hanaka


same thing as hanukkah & hannukah; version 61 of the spelling of the jewish holiday

hanukkah, the festival of lights, the reason for the celebration is twofold the miraculous military victory of the small, ill-equipped jewish army over the ruling greek syrians, who had banned the jewish religion and desecrated the temple; and the miracle of the small cruse of consecrated oil, which burned for eight days in the temple’s menorah instead of just one.

hanukkah is celebrated by:

– lighting a menorah for eight nights with olive oil or wax candles; one on the first night and an additional one each succeeding night, so that the last night has eight lights

– eating food fried in oil, especially potato pancakes (latkes) and jelly doughnuts (sufganiyot)

– playing with a dreidel, a four-sided top; the player wins or loses money depending on which side it lands on (each is marked with a different hebrew letter)
