Next week, we will celebrate Hanukkah – a holiday that recalls the story of the Jewish people at a time when they fought to preserve their autonomy and identity in the face of an oppressive military force.

Most Jews know only the legend about the miracle of the cruse of oil and very little about the actual military victories of the Maccabees. Judah Maccabee, his father, and his brothers are individuals who continue to provide us with a fighting spirit.

This eight-day holiday commemorates the rededication during the second century B.C. of the Second Temple in Jerusalem, where according to legend, Jews, led by Judah Maccabi established a strong Jewish army that had risen up against their Greek-Syrian oppressors in the Maccabean Revolt.

The morals of Hanukkah resonate with us to this day: bravery, resilience, rebellion, and independence. 70 years ago, a defense army was established in Israel to protect the people and the State of Israel. To this day it is one of the most powerful armies in the world.

In honor of Hanukkah, the Farkash Gallery is proud to present a collection of rare military posters That were printed during the War of Independence and before.
The posters are on special sale by the end of 2022
