Orthodox Judaism followers use the Torah as their holy book. The holy days include Hanukkah, Rosh Hashanah, and Yom Kippur.
- Hanukkah is the celebration of the victory of the Maccabees over the Syrians in the second century B.C.E.. It occurs in late November to mid December and is also known as the Festival of Lights.
- Rosh Hashanah is the Jewish New Year which occurs in mid September/October.
- Yom Kippur is the Day of Atonement and occurs after Rosh Hashanah. Followers do not eat or drink from sunrise to sunset. This time is used to repent for actions of the past year.
