This year, when setting up the menorah, set up the camera too because Chabad of Coral Springs is creating a video montage and inviting others to participate.
In Hebrew, Chanukah means tradition and begins at sunset on Thursday, December 10. It is an eight-day celebration ending Friday, December 18.
Chanukah commemorates Judah Maccabee and others who drove the Greeks from Jerusalem during the second century B.C.E. The miracle occurred when the Second Temple was being redirected. However, there was only enough sacred oil to keep the menorah’s candles burning for a single day, yet the flames continued for eight nights until new oil was prepared based on rituals.
Photos of a menorah lighting, which can include those from last year, should be submitted by December 12 and sent to chabadcs@gmail.com or sent via messenger to their Facebook page.
