Oh Chanukah Oh Chanukah

David Summerford plays the festive holiday song while scenes of Chanukah related photos play in the background. One menorah photo is particularly poignant as it was taken in Nazi Germany. Mandolin and banjo and bowed dulcimer are used to portray the song

where can i find the picture at 2:05 I'd like to show it for a project I'm doing. Its kind of a show and tell of sorts for a philosophy class where we're to present our ethnic history.

@thekdchapman I got it by googling "menorah" and searching images...if you add the name Posner it might help

No, Yonah, it's more like Independence Day. The oil miracle was a later story that developed 200 years after the Maccabean war.

But Judaism is NOT just Christianity without the Greek Testament.

By the way, it was the Syrians, not the Greeks, who oppressed the Jews.

We bless the sacred nine directions, the arc/ark of the covenant, the bowing of the sacred family the rainbow clan. Thank you relatives for sharing this song, our hearts feel the waves of sin gone by, but still we forge forth with faith, once again, it's time to sing! We bow, we bless the sacred nine directions, for all of mankind, the rainbow clan!

@cvbnm20071 There is a difference between a menorah and a channukiah. The menorah has 7 lamps and was found within the temple to represent the nations of the world. The channukia has 9 lamps.. one for each day the temple menorah burned, even though there was only enough oil for 1 day. That is the miracle of Channukah.. G-d worked a miracle so the lamps would burn until more oil could be brought in. ;)

@guapo100100 Putting it in hebrew doesn't make it any more appropriate.
