Many Christians are not familiar with the significance of the Hannukah story because the story is not told in the Bible. It occurred inbetween the Old and New Testaments. But the Maccabean defeat of the Seluecid forces allowed them to take back the temple and rededicate it to the God of Israel. This helped to set the stage for the beginning of the New Testament story of Jesus which begins in that same temple with the priest Zachariah – the father of John the Baptist. So Happy Hannukah to everyone!

ISRAEL FACE TO FACE –  with Efrat Meir-Groman, Neot Kedumim – The Biblical Landscape Reserve

In this episode of Out of Zion, ICEJ USA President Dr. Susan Michael explains why Christians should stand with Israel and build a relationship with the Jewish people rooted in mutual respect. She tackles sensitive issues such as the separation of church and synagogue, how anti-Jewish teachings fueled antisemitism, the role of church leaders in its rise, and even how Martin Luther’s writings helped pave the way for the Holocaust. Most importantly, she shares a vision for Christians to forge a new and respectful relationship with the Jewish people.
