Jews do not celebrate Christmas.

But because most everything is closed, and many of their non-Jewish friends are busy, liberal Jews might go to the movies on December 25, or eat in Chinese restaurants, since they are often the only restaurants open.

If a Jew did want to celebrate Christmas, they would do it the same way anyone does.

Answer 2

Jews stay home, and go to the synagogue as usual. Acknowledging Christmas in any manner is forbidden in Jewish law; and the same goes for the other holidays of Christianity, and those of other religions.

Where do they not celebrate Christmas?

i think its more of a matter of who doesn't celebrate Christmas instead of where. Christmas is a religious holiday so its more based on the different religions. Jews for example don't celebrate Christmas so areas where people are Jewish would be as "christmasy".


Why do not jewish people celebrate christmas?

It is unclear what the question is asking.If it is asking "Why do Non-Jews celebrate Christmas?", the answer would likely be: They celebrate it because they are Christians or Atheists from a Christian Background and connect with Christmas in a spiritual or familial way.If it is asking "Why do Jews not celebrate Christmas?", the answer would likely be: Most Jews ignore Christmas; it is simply not something of any importance to them in much the same way that Christians ignore Hanukkah, Eid al-Adha, or Diwali (which are Jewish, Islamic, and Hindu holidays) because they are not relevant to their tradition. Jews hold that their savior is not yet born, so it would be improper to celebrate the birth of a false Messianic Candidate.
