Christian Stadel Connects the Dots

In the spring issue of JQR (JQR 115.2), Christan Stadel takes a look at the Scroll of Antiochus (aka: Hanukkah Scroll, the Greek Scroll, or the Book or Scroll of the Hasmoneans), which tells the Hanukkah story. This text first appears in Babylonian sources and is preserved in several languages, appearing as part of the holiday liturgy in the geonic Middle Ages and beyond.
