Why did the Maccabees attack early in the morning?

Because Dawn is tough on Greece.

Ketchup on latkes is the exact kind of assimilation the Maccabees were fighting against.

Once again making my elevator pitch for a Maccabees prestige drama with grey-vs-grey morality that's in significant part an allegory for the U.S. war in Afghanistan.
Happy Hanukkah, the holiday where we celebrate the defeat of a large cosmpolitan empire by a small determined group of militant religious fanatics

Meanwhile, the “American Jewish right” is making clear that they view progressive and even centrist Jews – basically anyone who isn’t in lock-step with Netanyahu – as their enemies.

They think they are modern-day Maccabees. 🧵

Much like Home Alone 3, the book of 3 Maccabees capitalized upon the success of the first two installments of the Maccabees franchise by sharing their name yet without including any of the original characters.

The Maccabees were awful role models.

But Hanukkah is prominent as a holiday of diaspora and I think that’s beautiful.
