It is the holiday of lights because I forget the tribe but they were attacking the Jewish synagogue and the oil in the lamps in the synagogue miraculously lasted eight days I believe...it has been awhile since I heard the story.

great comments! Yes, Sassy..in fact during the Holocaust, families still had the desire to keep this sacred holiday intact.
