Question
One legend states that dogs appear to people who study the Torah on the day before this holiday, which is why many study a parody text called the Toledot Yeshu. People on this holiday are often greeted in Hebrew with “Chag Molad Sameach.” The Baal Shem Tov popularized calling the day before this holiday Nittel Nacht. A dance called the Matzo Ball is often held the day before this holiday, which is often celebrated by eating Chinese food due to other restaurant closures. The North American tradition of the Hanukkah bush likely derived from, for 10 points, what non-Jewish holiday’s tradition of decorating a tree? ■END■
