Ancient Origins of Santa Claus & Christmas – Yule Be Surprised!
This Teaching examines the origins and practices associated with Christmas and Santa Claus through the speaker’s Torah-focused discussion of worship, historical traditions, and biblical warnings against idolatry and syncretism. It distinguishes commemorating Yeshua’s birth from the familiar customs of Santa Claus, trees, gifts, and winter festivities. The speaker discusses December 25, Yule, Saturnalia, Krampus, St. Nicholas, and the golden calf, then closes with counsel to approach relatives and fellow believers with patience rather than judgment. Historical links and genealogies of customs are claims made in the Teaching and warrant independent verification.
