While I don't recommend it for mainstream Jews, this booklet can be helpful for those coming from a Messianic Jewish or Hebrew Christian background (or just any Christian who wants to celebrate Hanukkah).

Clear, concise, and practical, with basic yet helpful theological insights. Will get you started if the holiday is new to you.

I found this to be a good starting point, but I believe that Hanukkah has more meaning with Y'shua in my life. I am currently evaluating it in this "light."

This guide was a great stepping stone to help my family celebrate Hanukkah from a messianic Jewish standpoint. We want to celebrate Hanukkah with an emphasis on Messiah Yeshua. After researching more indepth on the internet however, I wish this book explained a little more specifically about Scriptures that could be read each night and/or more modern songs. The history and reason behind celebrating Hanukkah as a believer is top notch though.

This little guide is useful to Messianic Jews or Jewish Roots-oriented believers who are considering celebrating Hanukah in some way. Adaptable to church use as a teaching tool too. It contains easy to understand summaries as to what Hanukah is about, its connection to Daniel 8 and Jesus' celebration of Hanukah, and its traditional observances.

Great for families, home groups, etc. Complete with directions for playing Dreidel games, making potato pancakes (latkas -- or, as we Slovaks say, latci). It even includes suggested children's programs to teach the meaning of the holiday with a menorah motif.

Nice booklet.
