I read a text about Jewish religion because i find it interesting because i am half jewish. In the jewish religion Hannakah. It deals with the maccabes and how they got attacked and how they had one candle that they thought was only going to burn for one day but it ended up burning for nine days. So to represent that they have the candles. They have four on one side and four on the other and a large on in the middle. Unlike the christian verision or christmas when the kids get presents on one day, christmas day. Jewish kids get 9 presents, one for every day the candle burns. When one of the days comes you light one of the candles and then you save the biggest one for the biggest present. I liked reading about this because i got to learn about my backround even though i do not celebrate the Jewish holidays.
