Interesting! What is Diwali about? I am Jewish, Hanukah is basically celebrating the victory we had against the Seleucid empire who tried to conquer our land and kick us out of our holiest city where we had our temple.. the reason for the lights is because we had a miracle happening in our temple, they tried to destroy our temple and we had enough oil to light candles as part of the temple’s ritual

Its after the zionists came from Europe after ww2 is when the animosity started as these invaders came and took their homes and land. Palestinians are Christians too. Other muslim countries had jews living in their countries. After the Spanish Inquisition many sephardi jews fled to Turkey and north Africa.

One correction: traditionally, women will wear head coverings if they are married and/or particularly religious even if they’re single (although usually only married women wear either wigs or other head coverings to conceal their natural hair). Also, some of the customs and traditions-such as eating bagels and lox and mitzvoim (kiruv)-are originally from and/or exclusive to certain Jewish groups (such as bagels and lox among Ashkenazi Jews, and kiruv among Haredi-leaning Jews at minimum. Even Non-Haredi-leaning Orthodox Jews may be reluctant about kiruv.).

[@BrainDamageBBQ]

Absolutely beautiful, thank you. I have been mistaken for a Jew pretty much all my life, in both bad and good ways - I have experienced my fair share of antisemitism and my fair share of new friendships just because someone assumed I was a fellow Jew. When this happens, you start to learn about the tribe with whom you are mistakenly assumed to be with. I love and admire these people. So I started to attend Shabbat services in support of my Jewish friends and I have found a beautiful and wonderful and wise and welcoming culture of the most extraordinarily resilient people. Having a reasonably good idea about the community and the culture and people is one thing. Attending services for the first time, dropping in for several hours of Hebrew, is truly breathtaking and a whole other level. I also don't think you can ever be invited; a good person of any faith is respected and loved and has no need to be "Saved", so you just have to go on your own if you're interested. Now I am finding myself following along with parashahs, using proper nouns to synchronize myself with the English translation of the Hebrew being read from the bimah, and I am somehow doing this before my first cup of coffee... I am even getting better at using the hair clips to keep my kippah on. Getting good at throwing candy at children (!) is a humourous and unexpected new skill. Torah Service. Wow. To see the founding document of Western Civilization, being read in its original language, is such a great experience that I keep on going back. My first day was Bereshit... today was Vayishalch, and I have been every week. The Rabbi's sermons are great explanations of the reading and how it relates to daily life and current events. I love the body language; you're staring mostly at the back of the Cantor as he reads the prayers, instead of facing the congregation and preaching at you, he is himself just a much more learned person (and great singer!) who is himself facing the Ark with absolute reverence. Attending Shabbat has made my life better and even if you're a non-Jew who is there only to see what it's all about, you will come away as a better person. If your motivations to attend are pure, you will absolutely be accepted. And you will have a great time surrounded by joy and humour. Toda raba. Shavua tov.

my god fellow jewish people! Your culture is so beautiful!

[@Frederic1406]

Thanks for sharing and nice from Menachem and his family to guide you and welcome you. I am not really familiar with these rituals so it was very interesting. For me, as a non religious person, my initial reaction is to be overwhelmed by how present and frequent the rituals and community gatherings are through the day. But it was also a holiday special so it makes sense.

This takes me back when my 4th grade class at school had a Hanukkah party. That was so much fun! The jelly donuts, and the raspberry jelly candies!! I remember eating a lot of latkes and won a game of dreidel and had like a lot chocolate coins. My classmates hated me! Lmao! I think i might be part Jewish. Im not sure. I think my great grandmother on my mom’s side was Jewish. I don’t remember. Lol

[@markianb]

Aw that sounds like a lovely memory. I’m sure the dreidel competition was intense 😄 thank you for sharing your story!

[@sharingchabadinspiration]

As jewish information: if your moms side is jewish then your fully jewish. Like your mom's maternal mother, grandmother etc...

I've been part of an Orthodox Jewish family all my life, and we've had cereal and milk for breakfast. I want to move in with these guys too.

What a great experience for you guys - really lovely to see an insight into Judaism without it being pharisaic. The guy, his family and others were very welcoming.
