No, it is not true. Hanukkah is not even explicitly mentioned in the Torah, and is hardly in the class of Yom Kippur. When the "High Holy Days" are mentioned, that title refers to Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur ... two holidays that are observed only 10 days apart.Hanukkah is a celebration of events in Jewish history. Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are Torah-holidays (Leviticus ch.23) that are dedicated to proclaiming God's kingship, to personal introspection, to taking stock of one's personal life and future intentions, to evaluating one's role as a member of the unified Jewish community, and to seeking the forgiveness of God and of people whom we have wronged in the previous year.
