Books with title Hannukah Story

Events have occurred throughout the ages which, without the faith of God loving saints, might have meant the extinction of the nation of Israel. Instead, the Lord, Jehovah intervened and saved His people. The events described in “A Hanukkah Story” set the stage for the coming of Jesus Christ. Jesus, the Messiah celebrated Hanukkah as well as the other Jewish feasts. He is the light of the world, a light for revelation. When Christians think about Hanukkah, they should remember the miracle of the oil as well as the faith of the Maccabeen sons of Israel. Their strength which came from the Lord preserved a nation. The book includes a page of historical and prophetic information as well as questions and answer for discussion. The content professes Christ as savior and Lord.

Tells children the origin of Hanukkah. Lighting the menorah, the special Hanukkah candleholder, is the most important part of the holiday. The book explains the miracle that happened more than 2,000 years ago in Judea, where the Jewish people built a Temple in Jerusalem. It held a lamp that was kept burning night & day with special oil. But King Antiochus forbid the Jews to worship the Lord. Mattathias & his 5 sons formed a rebel band called the Maccabees which defeated the army Antiochus sent against them. When they restored the Temple, the one remaining jug of oil miraculously kept the sacred lamp burning for 8 days! Ever since, Jewish families light the first candle on their menorahs & remember the rededication of the Temple. Illus.
