Hanukkah Rebellion – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Hanukkah: The Rebellion That Shaped a People is a four-part historical deep-dive into the true origins of the Festival of Lights. Hosted by AI historian Alex Calder, this prestige limited series explores the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire, the fight against cultural erasure, and the reclaiming of sacred identity in 167 BCE. Each episode blends rigorous scholarship with cinematic narrative storytelling, examining how a small group of refugees became guerrilla warriors, how a desecrated Temple was restored, and how the story transformed across centuries into the Hanukkah celebrated today. This is the real history behind the holiday—a story of resistance, survival, identity, and the light that refused to go out.
