But What If I Love The Greeks?!: Hanukkah for Philosophers

Hosted By: Valley Beit Midrash

On Hannukah we light candles and commemorate a time “when the evil Greek kingdom rose up against Your people Israel.” Those of us who love studying Greek philosophy and literature must ask ourselves some big questions on this holiday. Fortunately, the Jewish tradition has a great deal to offer us as we try to make sense of it.
