I’m very proud of this version of Mi Yimaleil that I wrote and which will be released on an upcoming Davis Academy/Hello, Goodbye, & Peace album.
Mi Yimaleil emphasizes the heroism of the Maccabees in their struggle against the Greeks during the time of the Chanukah story. While the Maccabees left a complex legacy that warrants some healthy reflection and conversation, the short version is that we still tell their story to this day.
Enjoy the song!
