Fesitval of Lights ~
At our home, we decorate everywhere with white festive lights. One of the
names for this holiday is the Fesitval of Lights. Yeshua (Jesus) is known as
the Light of the World so we celebrate that. The front yard dons tiki torches
that stand out boldly as our outside hanukiah. We stand as a family each night
and use the ‘Servant Candle’ to light the others. Inside the house, we read the
Hanukkah story and discuss the price that disiples have paid to uphold and guard
the ways of the Torah throughout time. The story of Hanukkah shadows the
forthcoming of the anti-Christ as one of the meanings of Antiochus Epiphanes is
‘God Manifest’ or ‘God Revealed’. Knowing that history repeats itself, we feel
it important to impart the truth of scripture and history.
