Episode Synopsis "1 Maccabees (Ch. 6)"

1 Maccabees is an account of the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire.  Although it recounts the events that led to Hanukkah, this book didn't make it into traditional Jewish canon.  We are told that Christ attended a Hanukkah celebration (referred to in the Bible as "The Feast of Dedication"), but does that mean that this story should be included in Christian Canon?  Join our wandering woman in Sinai as she reads through this book and contends with God's role in all of it.
