National Geographic: I learnt that is a Jewish tradition and nothing more.If they only could read with understanding the horrors that await them in the book of Isaiah not to mention the other major and minor prophets they would repent in sackcloth and ashes. But the vast majority will not. Hanukkah is not a Levitical command. Mark 7:9 (KJV) And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. We can find a New Testament account of this celebration in John 10:22, when Jesus was present for this festival. His example shows us that it is not wrong to take part in certain celebrations if those celebrations do not have a pagan origin and do not violate God’s laws. Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Thanksgiving Day and July 4th would be examples.Originally, the Jews celebrated Hanukkah as a national holiday, not a religious one. However, the way in which it is celebrated today has become similar to the Christmas celebration, since some of the Christmas customs have been adopted. Some may consider the expression “Father of lights” (Jms. 1:17) to be related to this celebration, but Hanukkah has no connection to this scripture.
I learnt from the video that Jews celebrate success against the odds, belonging and the light of hope on this day. I learnt from the comments under the video that antisemitism, arrogance, bigotry and cynicism is still very much present in the world, so Hanukkah is still very much needed.
Very interesting video. I'd like to wish Jewish people a very Happy Hanukkah 🕎 from Ireland 🇮🇪. Sorry I only celebrate Christmas because I am Christian as Roman Catholic and I hope it's OK with that.
Wow I’m impressed! Even Christmas got more hate than this video did. I didn’t see very bad and hurtful comments in the comment section. What is it that Hanukkah has the Christmas and Kwanzaa doesn’t! Merry Christmas and Happy Kwanzaa!!!
Happy Hanukkah to everybody in Israel from a Ha Shem fearing gentile in America. I honor the Maccabees for their courage and I believe they were blessed for their courage by the miracle of the holy oil. 🕎 🇮🇱🇺🇸😁
Non-Jews are probably not interested in Hanukkah, because unlike Christmas, it's a national/patriotic holiday of the Jewish people rather than a birthday of a saviour of humanity.
Hanukkah is now over sadly, I wish a happy Hanukkah to everyone or if your not Jewish happy holidays! , as a half Jewish person who is about to convert I love looking at these videos to help me, if anyone knows how to spell Hanukkah, like some do Chanukah, or Hanukkah, or Hanuka, does anyone know? And all videos celebrate differently, is there one correct way to do it?
鬼ゴズ-san These are not jews my dear. Jews protest against the acts and beliefs of whatso called "israel" you can look it up. If you hear what they say you are going to be convinced. I as a Muslim appreciate all my christians and jews brothers and sisters, merely all believers, but israelis are another story. They are celebrating for the temple, yet there is not such a thing. This is why you can see so many dislikes. Because this holiday is not for a real thing it is just a lie from their government. In fact, any true religious jews there are being jailed.
Max Mustler It's not covered. Just search on youtube and see what the jews are protesting for. It is what they exactly said. I don't think they lied I felt they were truthful. You might listen to them and think of something else, I don't know.
mazel tov I love that word and use it alot. I like the video. No new info for me though. I guess I've done a pretty good job at understanding religions. I have none of my own so I take what I like from all of them.
I was assigned by my teacher to teach the kids in our private school that have a special class for the Hebrew section if the day about Chanukah, and so I found this video to show them
"A helper candle, the Shamash is used to light the other candles" Does anyone else find it a coincidence that the main candle has the same name as the Babylonian sun god Shamash?

Hanukkah is about more than latkes and dreidels. What new facts did you learn about the history of this holiday?

National Geographic what is the music in the background?
It is a traditional Hanukah song.
Yes truth and corrective action is never pleasant for a World that is in dire need of it.
Happy Hanukkah from Iraqi Christian god bless you all.
Sargon Alakkady I have no religion but I'm pretty sure Jews and Christians have the same god. You know with the old testament and everything.
Thank you!

The resilience of the Jewish people is so remarkable. Happy very early Hanukkah!
Happy Hanukka to everyone who celebrates it!
Why so many dislikes? It was a beautiful video, very informative and very well done. I just don't get the internet sometimes.

Happy Chanuka from Papua new Guinea 🇵🇬
Have a safe and beautiful Hanukkah, everybody!
I love latkes, they taste so wonderful! Also, did you know that Chanukah lasts for 8 nights?
Happy Chanukah everyone, enjoy!
Both. Chanukah is a closer transliteration, but Hanukkah is more universally used in English.
I looks like such a magical and beautiful holiday celebration! I wish we as Christians had continued with many of the Jewish holidays and customs!
You are supposed to why are you following pagan traditions and saying you belong to Gods kingdom no pagan belongs there
Freilechen Chanukah! Chag Sameach! 🕎🎶
Wootwoot!
I always like it when someone is talking jiddisch...it reminds me of me trying to talk while having a bottle of jägermeister in me belly

Hanukkah is better than Christmas

Who did he actually save?
Basically Christmas is shopping holiday that was it's routes in paganism

There is no correct way to spell Hanukkah although the mostly used way is “ Hanukkah”
Happy sabbath happy Hanukkah
Happy Hannukah.
I had to watch this for my R.E homework and the only thing I liked about it was the interesting facts in THIS video and the music in THIS video >_
VERY BEAUTIFUL
מרגש ממש איזה סירטון יפה בחרת אהבתי תודה לך על השיתוף
Jerusalem always was and always will be the eternal capital of Israel and the Jewish people. Happy Chanukah!
Random Dude Yeah right!
A country that doesn't exist can't have a capital.
TresTurkey Precisely my point.
A lot of crazy people on this comment section...
FxMxRx Exactly.
So basically it’s a jew’s version of Diwali (Indian festival)❣️❣️ happy 🕎 🙏
loved the music.!! Happy Hanukkah Jews😊
