Hanukkah In Toronto, Canada
Hassidic Jewish man dressed up as a Maccabee warrior tells Jewish youth the story of Chanukah after a performance on ice in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on December 09, 2007. The Jewish festival of Hanukkah celebrates the re-dedication of the Temple following Judah Maccabee's victory over the Seleucids. According to Rabbinic tradition, the victorious Maccabees could only find a small jug of oil that had remained uncontaminated by virtue of a seal, and although it only contained enough oil to sustain the Menorah for one day, it miraculously lasted for eight days, by which time further oil could be procured.
