Hannukkah eve begins at sundown on December 11. The Jewish celebration of Hannukkah, the Festival of Lights (and the Feast of Dedication), commemorates the victory of Judah the Maccabee and religious freedom, and the rededication of the Temple in 165 BCE. It also celebrates the power of God and the faithfulness of Israel. INFORMATION SOURCE: Multifaith Calendar produced by the Multifaith Action Society of Vancouver.
