The Miracle Of
Chonukoh
By DAVID SCHWARTZ


Judas Maccabeus entered the
Temple after vanquishing the
forces of Antiochus. he found
only a little cruise of oil. sufficient
for day. but it lasted for eight
days. The real miracle Of Chan
ukah. of course. was the one we
mention in our prayers. namely.
that small forces defeated super
ior numerical forces.
There is a lot about miracles in
Judaism, and yet the genius of
Judaism was always essentially
hostile to the miracle concept.
Many attempts are made in the
Talmud to rationalize and explain
them as not contravening the Or
der of nature. In that respect,
the fundamental spirit of Judaism
was in harmony with science.
But the belief in miracles new
ertheless keeps popping up. If
Benjamin Franklin could say
after the Revolutionary War. that
he was convinced that Divine
Providence on several occasions
directly interviewed to aid the
Americans we have its counter
part in a man like Weizmann.
man not of the synagogue but of
the laboratory who said that "A
realist today must believe in mir
acles." How else can it look to
DR.. Weizmann. when he saw Co.
600 Palestine Jews stand their
ground against the whole Arab
world.
OF course, at bottom it's a mat
ter Of semantics. Just what do
we mean by the word miracle?
Not so long ago. David Ben
Gurion made a speech in which
he left the implication that the
Jews might have regained Pales-
tine many times before. We know
that Spinoza. who was far from
being a devout Jew. thought such
development possible in his own
day. A hundred years ago. the
American Major Mordecai Manu-
Ell Noah who was American consul
in Tunis under President Madison.
spoke of like possibility in his
own day. He had been in the
Middle East and he said it would
be possible for the Oriental Jews
to put a force of 100000 men in
the field.
Why didn't they do it?
Essentially. because they had
not made up their minds to do it.
They had notions that they had
to wait for some special appear
ance in the skies. Some waited
for man riding on white pony
to come and lead the movement.
Some had figured out, by numer-
ology from the Book of Daniel,
that the time had not yet arrived.
Some rabbiner in Munich, Ger
many said that the establishment
of a Jewish state would be un-
patriotic to the fatherland.
Some said if a Jewish state
were established. what would they
do about an army? Jews. they
said. could only fight for seats in
Shoot on Rosh Hashonah. Some
said. if a Jewish state were es-
tablished. what would it do for
policemen?
I remember a cartoon in one
Jewish paper in which the future
contingency was pictured. Two
Jews are fighting one another and
a Jewish policeman is asked to
intervene. He stands aloof and
replies "Ich misch SIGH nischt in
fremde gesheften."

the Council for JudastYps Jews who tried qdate the
faith OF Israel by espoung the dotrous Greek worship:
those renegades. at the present time overwhelmed
by the Torahoving Jews who banded together the little
state of Judaea to overthrow the SYrianreen monarch
Antiochus.
This festival of Dedication Days is in comemoraon of
the rededaon Of the Temple Of Jerusalem by the victorious
Maccabees in 1877 B. c. E.
Mattathas of old prestY family raised the standard
OF revolt With the aid of his five John Simon Judas
Eeazar and Jonathan he gathered around
him all those Jealous for the Law The brothers hurled

The Feast of Lights is in memory of the eight days
qured for the rededcaon of the Sanctuary which had been
desecrated by the heather worship which Antochus had
established.
Only the of sacred oil had found in the
Temple when Judas Maccabeus the dynamic leader
brothers had and legend tells that this
lasted for the entire eight days required for the impressive
ceremony.
The two books of the Apocrypha, Maccabees One and
Two record this heroic struggle for religious freedom mark
ing of the turning points the history of civilization that
saved the idea of One God for humanity.
Today Chanukah has received fresh significance be-
Of the national revival Of the State of Israel
struggle strongly reminiscent of the undYnq deeds of the
Maccabeans.
1t is the custom in homes and in the synagogues to light
