Objections to Hanukkah | Founded in Truth

Special guest and scholar Matt Nappier joins us to answer some of the common objections when it comes to Messianic believers celebrating Hanukkah. We wanted to make sure we posted this after the Hanukkah season to dampen any controversy that may arise.

00:57 OBJECTION 1: Hanukkah is not a "Biblical Feast" commanded by God
03:13 OBJECTION 2: The Bible never says Jesus "celebrated Hanukkah" in John 10
07:32 OBJECTION 3: The Menorah used during Hanukkah is a defiled recreation of the Temple Menorah, and Hanukkah should not be celebrated because of it.
10:08 OBJECTION 4: The traditional Hanukkah blessing is not Biblical, therefore Hanukkah should not be celebrated.
11:43 OBJECTION 5: Hanukkah is simply a celebration of Sukkot at the wrong time of the year.
