The menorah has been lit, the lights are glowing. A Dorit Judaica dreidel, with its gleaming crystal Swarovski stones, will add to the atmosphere. Around the top is written – nes gadol ha’yah poh – a great miracle happened here. During the year, keep it displayed as an exquisite item of Judaica.

What is the source of the dreidel? It is an eloquent reminder of the legendary heroism of the young children at the time of the Greek persecution. They would study Torah secretly and whenever Greek soldiers approached they took out their spinning tops and pretended to be playing.
