Shabat Shalom & hanuka sameach.jpg

Long before »Chrismukkah« entered the popular lexicon in the early 21st century, Christmas and Hanukkah celebrations have been informally merged with one another. A Christmas celebration with a tree, songs, and gifts became a symbol of being a part of German culture for many middle-class Jewish families in the 19th century. Some Jews celebrated Christmas as a secular »festival of the world around us« without religious meaning, or they transferred Christmas customs to the Hanukkah festival.

Dear all, thanks a lot for your great ideas, threads and for being here!
