Editor’s note: This story by Elie Wiesel was first published in the Forward in Yiddish on December 12, 1969. This Hanukkah, we decided it was time to give the original Yiddish new life. This new translation, including aspects of the story not included in previous English translations, is by Myra Mniewski and Chana Pollack, the Forward’s archivist.
The story we are about to tell has to do with Hanukkah. It did not take place during the time of the Hasmoneans and Judah Maccabee, but in our own times.
Additionally, I lived through it myself. Nonetheless, it sounds mysteriously faraway, like a legend from times gone by.
