"DIY Menorah" Kit, 2010-2020
01
Artifact Overview
Hanukkah celebrates the 164 B.C.E. victory of a small rebel army, the Maccabees, over the Jews' Syrian-Greek oppressors and the miracle of a small amount of oil lasting for eight days as it burned in the defiled temple's lampstand. Many Jewish families light a symbolic candelabrum called a menorah each night of Hanukkah. This do-it-yourself menorah helps teach children about Hannukah traditions.
