Events have occurred throughout the ages which, without the faith of God loving saints, might have meant the extinction of the nation of Israel. Instead, the Lord, Jehovah intervened and saved His people.
The events described in A Hanukkah Story set the stage for the coming of Jesus Christ. Jesus, the Messiah, celebrated Hanukkah as well as the other Jewish feasts. He is The Light of the world, a light for revelation.
In his book, Our Lost Legacy, Dr. John Garr states, “Of all the symbols devised to demonstrate truth, the menorah is the only one that was designed by God himself.” He goes on to say, “The golden candlestick, then, is a depiction of both Jesus and the church as the light of the world.”
When Christians think about Hanukkah, they should remember the miracle of the oil as well as the faith of the Maccabeen sons of Israel. Their strength which came from The Lord preserved a nation.
This book includes historical and prophetic information, questions and answers for discussion, and scripture from both the King James Version of the Bible and the KJV Apocrypha. The content professes Christ as Saviour and Lord.
May this story help its young readers to understand the depth, breadth, length, and width of God’s love as defined in Ephesians 3:18. His might and His strength will always overcome the wiles of the enemy. His eternal plan for the Jews and the Gentiles will never be thwarted. Rest in His promises and trust in His plan for your salvation, oh children of the living God.
