Read the passage. Then answer the question that follows. After the Jews defeated the Syrians, they purified the Second Temple in Jerusalem. But the leaders were worried that they wouldn’t have enough oil to keep the sacred light in the temple lit.

My family honors this event every year when we light the candles on our menorah and exchange gifts with one another.
