Menorah parade celebrates the 2015 Chanukah season
Historically, Hanukkah celebrates the re-taking of Jerusalem from Syrian control and the ancient Temple from the hands of a priestly aristocracy committed to Hellenizing Jewish ritual.

Chabad had planned more than 60 celebrations and nightly public menorah lightings around Paris this year, with many designed for children, teens and young professionals. Today, we rededicate ourselves to making this world a better and brighter place. A main message of the holiday, according to Rabbi Shalom Bochner, who serves as the rabbi for the congregation, “is the power of light over darkness, the triumph of hope over despair”. From Australia to Africa, Columbia to Hong Kong, New York City’s ground zero to the White House lawn, hundreds of thousands will experience the joy of Hanukkah with Chabad.
Despite increased security fears, Chabad of Paris will go ahead with its annual public menorah lightings during Chanukah. It is celebrated on each of its eight days by lighting candles and reciting special prayers of thanks.
Members of the community are invited to the event, which will include a fire and ice show, music, snacks, arts and crafts, prizes and more. Barnes & Noble is located at 12405 N. Kendall Drive Miami, FL. An extra light called a shamash (guard or servant in Hebrew) is also lit each night for the goal of lighting the others, and is given a distinct location, usually above or below the rest.
The variety of events is put on by the partnership of Downtown Summerlin with the Jewish Community Center of Southern Nevada, the Chabad of Summerlin, and the Israeli American Council.
