Product Description

The Mensch on a Bench is a new Jewish tradition meant to bring more Funukkah to Hanukkah! Mensch on the Bench tells the story of Moshe the Mensch, who was in the temple with the Maccabees when they won the war against the Greeks. There was only enough oil for one night and everyone was exhausted from the war and wanted to go to sleep. But what if the oil went out while the jews were sleeping. From the back of the temple, Moshe offered to stay up all night and watch the oil. He would sit on the bench all night. Judah called him a Mensch...and a child joked "The Mensch on the Bench" and so the name stuck. The Mensch on the Bench is available as a book and a doll. The book tellsl the 8 rules of having a Mensch, which are meant to drive more jewish family traditions and re-enforce the values we want to hand down to our children. First came the story of Moshe the Mensd hold the Shch who helped Judah Maccabee at the temple. Moshe played dreidel, loved gelt, and was a true Mensch. Next came the doll which coulamash candle and watch over the Menorah.

Mensch will make Chanukah xtra special

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2014

Verified Purchase

Received today and it is absolutely adorable. I will display it proudly in my home. Got one for my 7 year old grandson as well. Want to thank you again for your very very prompt responses to my e mails. The doll is well made and represents Chanukah in his own unique way. Very reasonably priced. Excellent gift not only for kids but adults as well. The book is well written and kids will enjoy hearing the story of Chanukah and looking at the wonderful illustrations. This is the perfect addition to help celebrate Chanukah each year. I suggested to my daughter that she put it away after the last night of Chanukah is celebrated so that it will be around to be included in future Chanukah celebrations.

The Mench is the Christ old man. It comes with a book. I bought this as a gift for a family Member who just bought a home and had a new baby. It looked adorable sitting above their Fireplace during Hanukkah. It's the same concept as ELF on a shelf during Xmas.
