Jewish Holiday
|
A Jewish holiday or festival is a day or series of days observed by Jews as a holy or secular commemoration of an important event in Jewish history.

I think they could find something else better to complain about than Halloween OR Purim. And I worked once in a Jewish candy store...trust me...there's candy involved!
