Overview

As the two boys talked, Ari said to Will, ""It's not that darkness frightens me as much as it once did...but I am more encouraged by the light I see in others."" The word ""Chanukah"" means ""dedication"" and points back to the Jewish people's resilience over foreign oppression and quest to regain their freedom and religious identity. This celebration dates back to ancient days, when a small jar of oil, enough to last for just one day, was lit. Miraculously, that oil burned for eight days, inspiring the festival we now know as Chanukah, or the ""Festival of Lights."" Chanukah embodies the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and a joyful devotion to Jewish culture and faith.
