This very brief On-Line Article includes some information pertaining to

"VICTORIES"

of:

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees"

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Usually ---

"Miss"-represented as:

'The Maccabees'

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "HamMakkabîym is pronounced as }

{ ham-mak-kab-eem' • hum-muk-kub-eem'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ --- Please take note that --- }

{ "The Books" of "HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees" • 'The Maccabees' }

{ are found in some 'Scriptural editions', }

{ and also in separate "works" known (collectively) as 'The Apocrypha'. }

___________________________________________

These "VICTORY CELEBRATION DAYS" as established by

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees"

are "FEAST DAYS" and "JOYOUS DAYS" of "DELIVERANCES" from

"evil", "oppression", and "death",

and, as such, they also look forward to

"THE FUTURE DELIVERANCE" by "YHVH"

--- via HIS "SON", "YâHH-HôVSHêä!", "The Conquering General" ---

of HIS "PEOPLE"

--- "The Brothers and The Sisters ---

--- in The Belief, The Trust, and The Way" ---

--- "The Elect" ---

from this 'world'!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

These "VICTORY CELEBRATION DAYS" also

"GIVE HONOUR and THANKS" to "YHVH"

since it is CLEAR that "THE DELIVERANCES" were

by/via HIS "COMPASSION" and GREAT "POWER"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Some of

"THE VICTORIES"

of

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees" • 'The Maccabees'

resulted in "A FEAST CELEBRATION" being established by them,

and it is this "FEAST CELEBRATION" which is notated briefly

in this article.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"THE FEAST CELEBRATION"

is:

"Chag heChanukkâh".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"Chag heChanukkâh"means "(The) Feast of The Dedication",

and it is pronounced as

khag heh-khah-nook-kaw' • khug heh-khuh-nook-kaw'.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- More completely ---

"Chag heChanukkâh"

means

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication"

["of The Temple and of The Altar"]

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The Temple" in "Y^erûvshâlaim"/'Jerusalem' at the time of

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees" • 'The Maccabees'

had been "violated"/"profaned"/"desecrated"

to the point of having had profane 'offerings' made in it,

with "swine's blood" having been poured out over "The Altar",

by the enemy of "The Nation of YHVDH"/'Judah'.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Y^erûvshâlaim" • 'Jerusalem' }

{ means "Founded Peaceful" or "Possession of Peace"; }

{ it is pronounced as y^e-roo-shaw-lah'-im • y^e-roo-shaw-luh'-im. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ The word 'desecrated' has been used with aforethought here, }

{ its root being from 'sacred' ß à 'Sakra': }

{ A 'Sanskrit'/'Hindu' sun-and-sky 'deity' }

{ which ultimately invokes "hasSâtân"/'Satan', }

{ "The Adversary" and "The Opponent of Right and Righteousness". }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "The Temple" and "The Altar" had clearly been profaned by }

{ "hasSâtânic forces". }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "HasSâtân" is pronounced as has-saw-tawn' • hus-saw-tawn'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "YHVDH" • "YHVDâH" • 'Judah' }

{ --- also "YHV[H]DH" • "YHV[H]Dâh" --- }

{ means "Praise/Thank YHV[H]!!!"; }

{ it is pronounced as yaw-way'-daw'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ These events can be studied in }

{ "1 Makkabîym" • "1 Makkabees" • '1 Maccabees' chapter 4 }

{ and "2 Makkabîym" • "2 Makkabees" • '2 Maccabees' chapters 1-2; }

{ chapter 6 verses 1-11; and chapter 10 verses 1-8; }

{ as well as other chapters which provide more background material. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ --- Also --- }

{ "SEE" and "HEAR" where "THE SON of YHVH" }

{ --- "YâHH-HôVSHêä‘! hamMâshîyach" --- }

{ --- "YâHH's Anointed Saviour" --- }

{ attended "(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication" in "Y^erûvshâlaim" • 'Jerusalem' }

{ as shown in "Yôvchânân" • 'John' 10:22-23. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "YâHH-HôVSHêä‘!" means "YâHH Is My Saviour/Deliverer/Redeemer!"; }

{ it is pronounced as yaw'-ho-shay'-ah • yaw'-ho-shay'-uh. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "HamMâshîyach" means "The Anointed One" }

{ it is pronounced as ham-maw-shee'-akh • hum-maw-shee'-ukh, }

{ and it is usually miss-rendered as 'Messiah'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Yôvchânân" means "YôV/YHVH-Favoured"; }

{ it is pronounced as yo-khaw-nawn'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The smearing of the "swine's blood" over "The Altar" in "The Temple"

was the epitome of contempt not only for

"The Nation of YHVDH"/ 'Judah' and its people,

but also for "The Creator of The Heavens and of The Earth",

"YHVH".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The enemy of "The Nation of YHVDH"/'Judah'

exalted itself and its 'gods'

--- in typical "Nimrôdian"/'Nimrodian' fashion ---

above, over, before, and in front of, "YHVH".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Nimrôd"/"Nimrôvd"/'Nimrod' means "Valiant" and "Strong"; }

{ it is pronounced as nim-rode'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

By a series of noble and brave exploits,

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees" • 'The Maccabees'

re-gained control of their land

( --- what we would look upon as --- )

( --- the southern part of the total land area of "Yis'râ’Yl"/'Israel' --- )

( --- as "YHVH" gave it at the first --- )

and demolished "The profaned Altar" and built a new one,

and thoroughly cleansed and purified "The Temple".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Yis'râ’Yl"/'Israel' means "Co-Ruling With The All Mighty One"; }

{ it is pronounced as yis-raw-eel' or yis-raw-ay'-eel • yis-raw-eye'-eel. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Since they had missed

"(The) Feast of The Tabernacles" • "(The) Feast of The Booths"

and

"Day The Eighth of The Feast"

("The Last Great (Eighth) Day of The Feast")

in "The 7^th Qôdesh Moonth" of that year

due to the routing of the enemy from their land,

and the demolishing of the desecrated,

and the building of the new,

"Altar",

as well as the purification and cleansing of "The Temple",

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees"

as part of "The RE-Dedication of The Temple and The Altar" ceremony,

opted to keep "The Eight Days of The Feast" in "The 9^th Qôdesh Moonth",

starting with the 25^th day of that "moonth",

when "The Temple" and "The Altar" were properly ready for service.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

They then established THAT "KEEPING" of "The Eight-Day Feast"

to be continual, annually, as part of

"HONOURING YHVH".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- And ---

Just as with

"(The) Feast of The Tabernacles" • "(The) Feast of The Booths"

and

"Day The Eighth of The Feast"

("The Last Great (Eighth) Day of The Feast"),

"The First and The Last Days"

of

"Chag heChanukkâh"

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication"

are also

"Annual High Days".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Depending upon whether or not

"The 9^th Qôdesh Moonth" is 29 or 30 days,

"Chag heChanukkâh"

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication"

begins with

"The 25^th Day of The 9^th Qôdesh Moonth"

--- D25, QM09 ---

and ends with

"The 2^nd or The 3^rd Day of The 10^th Qôdesh Moonth"

--- D03 or D02, QM10 ---

respectively.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ If "The 9^th Qôdesh Moonth" is 29 days, }

{ then "Chag heChanukkâh" • "(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication" }

{ will end on "The 3^rd Day of The 10^th Qôdesh Moonth". }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ If "The 9^th Qôdesh Moonth" is 30 days, }

{ then "Chag heChanukkâh" • "(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication" }

{ will end on "The 2^nd Day of The 10^th Qôdesh Moonth". }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "(The) Feast of The Tabernacles" • "(The) Feast of The Booths" }

{ is known as }

{ "CHaG HaÇÇuKKôVTH" • "Chag haçÇukkôvth" }

{ and }

{ "CHaG HaÇÇuKKôTH" • "Chag haçÇukkôth", }

{ being pronounced as }

{ khag-has-sook-koath' • khug-hus-sook-koath'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Day The Eighth of The Feast" • "The Last Great (Eighth) Day of The Feast" }

{ is known as }

{ "YôVM HaSHSH^eMîYNîY HeChaG" • "Yôvm hashSh^emîynîy heChag", }

{ being pronounced as }

{ yome hash-sh^emee-nee' heh- khag • yome hush-sh^emee-nee' heh- khug. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- And ---

Do not forget that

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication" • "Chag heChanukkâh"

is

"Qôdesh • Set Apart • Setting Apart Days and Time".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Therefore ---

No fermented beverages are to be used during

"The First and The Last (8^th) Days"

--- "The Annual Qôdesh Days" • "The Annual High Days" ---

as well as during the intervening "Weekly Shabbâth(s)"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ Where "The First and The Last (8^th) Days" }

{ are co-incident with "Weekly Shabbâths" }

{ --- such that they are re-inforced "Shabbâths" --- }

{ then 2 "Weekly Shabbâths" can occur as part of this "Feast". }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Please note that ---

Fermented beverages can be used on "days" two through seven of

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication" • "Chag heChanukkâh"

as long as they are not the "Weekly Shabbâth".

___________________________________________

"The RE-Dedication" of "The Temple"

and of

"The NEW Altar of Burnt Offerings"

--- "The Original Feast" • "The Original Chag heChanukkâh" ---

occurred in 164 b.c.e.

___________________________________________

In order to understand just how bad it was to profane

"The Temple" and "The Altar"

with non-clean animal 'offerings'

--- especially "swine"/"pig"/"pork"/"ham" and "its blood" ---

"study" should be made where "YHVH" COMMANDED in

"THE LAW" • "HaTTôRâH"

that NOT ONLY was "the swine" NOT to be "eaten",

its "carcass" was NOT even to be "touched"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Tôvrath halLêvîyyim" }

{ [ meaning "The Law of, for, and to The Lêvîy"/'The Levi' ] }

{ 'Leviticus' 11:7-8 }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Tôvrath halLêvîyyim" is pronounced as }

{ toe-rath' hal-lay-wee'-yim • toe-ruth' hul-lay-wee'-yim. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "Lêvîy"/'Levi' means "Joined" or "Attached"; }

{ it is pronounced as lay-wee'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "’Êl-leh hadD^ebharîym" }

{ [ meaning "These (Are) The Words/Commandments/Messages/Decrees" ] }

{ 'Deuteronomy' 14:8 }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "’Êl-leh hadD^ebharîym" is pronounced as }

{ ale'-leh had-d^e-bvar-eem • ale'-leh hud-d^e-bvur-eem. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The swine" • "The pig"

--- that is: "pork" ß à "ham" ---

is "UN-CLEAN"!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The swine" • "The pig"

--- that is: "pork" ß à "ham" ---

is "NON-CLEAN"!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The swine" • "The pig"

--- that is: "pork" ß à "ham" ---

is "FOUL" • "DEFILED" • "POLLUTED" • "CONTAMINATED"!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The swine" • "The pig"

--- that is: "pork" ß à "ham" ---

is NOT suitable for human ingestion!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ Can we NOT "SEE" and "HEAR" that, for example, }

{ in the united States of America, had "YHVH'S LAW/TôRâH" been obeyed, }

{ the 'god'-worshipping practice of 'football'/'foot-ba‘al' }

{ could NOT even have come about! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ --- Because --- }

{ 'The pigskin' --- 'the football' itself --- could not have been "touched"!!! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "TôRâH" is pronounced as to-raw' • toe-raw'. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ 'Ba‘al' means 'Lord'/'lord'; }

{ it is pronounced as bah'-al • buh'-ul. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ 'Ba‘al', usually miss-represented as 'Baal', }

{ is the 'Canaanite/Phoenician' deity of 'luck and fortune', }

{ which ultimately invokes "hasSâtân"/'Satan', "The Adversary"! }

___________________________________________

A tradition of 'man' and 'wo-man' at and for

"Chag heChanukkâh"

is that 'the lampstand' has at least 8 bowls for the lights:

1 bowl for each light --- 8 bowls = 8 lights.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ Sometimes they are designed with 9 bowls }

{ since one may be used for lighting the others. }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

This tradition of 'man' and 'wo-man' came about because

'some' light 1 light on "The First Night/Day" of

"Chag heChanukkâh",

2 lights on "The Second Night/Day",

and so forth until

8 lights are lit on "The Eighth Night/Day".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

An alternative tradition of 'man' and 'wo-man'

reverses the one just noted:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- That is ---

'Some' light 8 lights on "The First Night/Day" of

"Chag heChanukkâh",

7 lights on "The Second Night/Day",

and so forth until

1 light is lit on "The Eighth Night/Day".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Since "THE ORIGINAL" KEEPING of

"(The) Feast of The (RE-)Dedication"

by

"HamMakkabîym" • "The Makkabees" • 'The Maccabees'

simply lit the lights of "THE LAMP-STAND" in accordance with

PROPER "PRIESTLY ATTENDANCE" at and of "THE ALTAR",

and since that "THE LAMP-STAND" could ONLY have 7 bowls

by definition in "YHVH'S LAW/TôRâH",

THEN that is exactly what THOSE 'traditions' are:

TRADITIONS!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- And ---

Such 'traditions' are NOT part of "THE OBSERVANCES"

by "THE TRUE BELIEVER"!!!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Furthermore ---

ONLY OLIVE OIL "LIGHTS"

are to be used with and for

"THE LAMP-STAND"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

'Candles'

are NOT to be used with and for

"THE LAMP-STAND"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

'Phallic symbol candles'

are NOT to be used with and for

"THE LAMP-STAND"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ 'Candles' are PHALLIC 'symbols' --- especially as used in 'worship'! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ 'Candles' are PHALLIC 'symbols' --- especially as used in "spiritual adultery": }

{ 'Whore-ship'! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ --- And --- }

{ ALL 'worship' IS 'whore-ship' --- "spiritual adultery"! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Therefore ---

'References' to "THE LAMP-STAND" as

'cadelabrum', a 'candlestick', and/or a 'chandelier'

are NOT "CORRECT"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Properly ---

"THE LAMP-STAND"

should be referenced as:

"THE LAMP-STAND"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Or ---

"THE LAMP-STAND"

can be referenced as

('The English' representaion of "The Hebrew"):

"HamM^eNôRâH" • "HamM^eNôVRâH"

"HamM^enôrâh" • "HamM^enôvrâh"

which literally means "THE LAMP-STAND",

and it is pronounced as ham-m^e-no-raw' • hum-m^e-no-raw'.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Used alone,

"M^eNôRâH" • "M^eNôVRâH" • "M^enôrâh" • "M^enôvrâh"

literally means "LAMPSTAND",

and it is pronounced as m^e-no-raw'.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ --- CLEARLY "SEE" and "HEAR" --- }

{ "V^e’êl-leh Sh^emôvth" [ meaning "And These (Are) The Names/Renowns" ] }

{ 'Exodus' 25:31-40 and 27:20-21!!! }

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{ "V^e’êl-leh Sh^emôvth" is pronounced as w^eale'-leh sh^emoath'. }

___________________________________________

It is also to be noted that

"Chag heChanukkâh" • "Chanukkâh"

is also shown in most 'English' literature simply as:

'Hanukkah',

and it is (MISS-)pronounced accordingly.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- In other words ---

The first letter is pronounced as a 'H',

instead of the "CH"!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

'Hanukkah' confuses "The Hebrew" letter "Hê’"/"hê’"

(represented as 'H'/'h' in 'English')

with what is supposed to be "The Hebrew" letter "Chêyth"/"chêyth"

(properly represented as 'Ch'/'ch' in 'English').

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The Hebrew" letter "Hê’"/"hê’" is pronounced as hay.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

"The Hebrew" letter "Chêyth"/"chêyth" is pronounced as khayth,

where the "kh" is pronounced as if clearing one's throat

at the top and back.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

'Hanukkah' is not correct!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- However ---

There is some 'English' literature

which shows "The Hebrew" letter "Chêyth"/"chêyth" as a "H"/"h"

with a dot (.) underneath!

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

This is probably the best representation in the sense that

the older 'English' literature tends to this

(even though some 'modern English' literature also does).

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- But ---

Since MOST 'modern' printing does NOT allow for a letter "H"/"h"

with a dot underneath,

the "H"/"h" began to be printed without the dot

and it lost its proper pronunciation accordingly.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Hence ---

This author

--- coupled with the limitation of not having available a letter "H"/"h" ---

--- with a dot (.) underneath ---

uses the 'English' 'Ch'/'ch' for "The Hebrew letter "Chêyth"/"chêyth".

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

--- Therefore using ---

"Chag heChanukkâh" • "Chanukkâh"
