John 10:22

22 And it was at Jerusalem the feast of dedication, and it was winter.
23 And Yeshua walked in the Temple in Solomon's porch.

The Hebrew word for dedication is Hannukah.

Yeshua did NOT observe Christmas, although it was observed (by a different name) by the pagans of his time.  We'll talk more about that in a later chapter.

Let’s take a look at one more scripture concerning Yeshua’s customs before moving on.

Luke 4:16

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

So we see that through his childhood and up until at least his ministry he was brought up to be Torah observant. But what was his attitude about the law of God?
