Отмечая в этом году Хануку вместе с Thanksgiving мы продолжаем изначальную традицию.

What is [the reason of] Hanukkah? For our Rabbis taught: On the twenty-fifth of Kislew [commence] the days of Hanukkah, which are eight on which a lamentation for the dead and fasting are forbidden. For when the Greeks entered the Temple, they defiled all the oils therein, and when the Hasmonean dynasty prevailed against and defeated them, they made search and found only one cruse of oil which lay with the seal of the High Priest, but which contained sufficient for one day's lighting only; yet a miracle was wrought therein and they lit [the lamp] therewith for eighth day (sic! - NS). The following year these [days] were appointed a Festival with [the recital of]Hallel and Thanksgiving. (Шабат 21б)

Заодно: Turkey from Turkey, и индюшка из Индии (видимо, из турецкого или французского).

Хаг Самеах!
