Held in Israel hanukkah

At hanukkah , Jews light a special candlestick called a menorah. This is to remember the miracle of the oil lamp in the temple. The hanukkah candlestick has nine candles. The candle in the middle is used to light the others.

Hanukkah takes place in December and is also called the festival of lights. Long ago Jews did not have enough oil to light up the temple lamp. God kept the lamp alight for 8 days until more oil came. Each day during hanukkah another candle is lit.
