Happy Hanukkah

This is the coolest Hanukkah video I've seen lately:

Hanukkah is all about lighting candles. After the Jewish people won back their Temple in Jerusalem from the ancient Greek empire, there was only a small vase of oil left to light the Temple menorah. Thanks to the Hanukkah's miracle, the oil lasted for 8 days. So on each day of Hanukkah, you light an extra candle, starting with one and finishing with 8.

The menorah is a universal symbol of freedom. May we all share it and cherish that freedom.

Eran.
