Some people are prone to worship buildings. John 2:19; Matthew 26:61—; Mark 14:58-— Christ went up to the temple when the religious authorities appointed out of Rome were celebrating their festival... You really think Christ went to celebrate their festival??? I do not see how you get this notion given Christ told these religious authorities He was the Temple... Remember Christ knew what they thought before they uttered a word.
The Maccabean Revolt which resulted in the festival of Hanukkah was against the Selucid Empire. It had nothing to do with Rome. It was a festival celebrating the re-dedication and cleansing of the temple. It was in no way a Roman festival.
"You really think Christ went to celebrate their festival???"
It wasn't a Roman festival. It was and remains a thoroughly Jewish festival.
"I do not see how you get this notion given Christ told these religious authorities He was the Temple..."
Again, it wasn't a Roman festival that Christ went up to celebrate. It was a thoroughly Jewish festival that prophetically pointed to the re-dedication of the human body through the conception of Christ as a temple of the Holy Spirit totally dedicated to God the Father.
