Christmas is a Jewish Holiday…or at least it should be!
If Christmas isn’t exactly a Jewish holiday, maybe it ought to be. Maybe some of us Jews aren’t able to celebrate Christmas because we see it as a Jesus holiday. Christmas, after all, celebrates the birth of the greatest Jew who ever lived. Some of us Jews join in the mistletoe and merriment and enjoy the idea that people from every race on earth sing praise to the God of Israel, because of Jesus. Some people even love their neighbours because of Jesus. Did you know that all the writers of the New Testament were Jews?
Did you know that all the teachings of the New Testament like love, peace and caring are Jewish ideas and ideals?
Giving presents is a very Jewish thing to do. In fact, God gave His people the very best present, His only begotten son, that you might have real joy. We don’t know exactly what date he was born, but 25th December is as good as any day to celebrate his birth.
If you knew what we know, that Jesus really is the Jewish messiah, then you would agree that Christmas should be a Jewish holiday.
