A message from Matisyahu from matisyahuworld.com:

There’s so many Christmas songs out there, I wanted to give the Jewish kids something to be proud of. We’ve got Adam Sandler’s song which is hilarious but I wanted to try to get across some of the depth and spirituality inherent in the holiday—in a fun, celebratory song. My boy Kojak was in town so at the last minute we went into the studio in the spirit of miracles and underdogs and this is what we came up with. Happy Hannukah!!

-Matisyahu

Do you like the song?

The Maccabean revolt was not a religous - national revolt, but a social revolt as well.

The Greek - Maccadoian rules turned Jewish free farmers into vassals of Greeak cities and the kings’ plantations.

Somebody out there please help us get the message to him that next time he’s in Aretz Koidesh he should bring his skates - we have equipment for him. And tell him we’ve got enough frum guys and we always daven maariv after the game!

Hi Mati, loved your song, only I couldn’t hear the words; could you possibly post the lyrics up beneath the video, please?  My friends will love it too! Many thanks.
Happy Hols! Christine

He just did an acoustic version of the song on NPR. Lyrics were clearly heard, it is a great song!
