Best Answer

Chanukah is a celebration of the miracle of the oil. Some people invaded the Jewish Temple and put out the flame on the oil burner. When they regained the temple, they had to re-dedicate it to God. This ceremony took 8 days, but there was only enough for 1 day. But a miracle happened. The oil lasted for 8 days. These 8 days were declared a festival, to celebrate God.

So in conclusion, there are no other festivals that celebrate this miracle.

What other religions have similar Bibles?

Ummm... Similar to what, exactly? There are different versions of the Bible, in the sense that several Christian groups (and a few non-Christian groups, such as Judaism) differ in what books they consider to be "canon", that is, what books are included in the Bible. Other religions (non-Christians) have their own Holy Scripture, but those are different books, and they are not called "Bible". You would have to make up your own mind as to how "similar" you consider them to be.
