Is the book of Maccabees the same thing that some Christians include
in their Bible?  I remember hearing that there are two similar books
on Chanukah, one reliable and one not (or, one accepted by Jewish
tradition, one not).  I thought that one is the book of Macabbees and
the other book of Chasmonaim, but I'm not sure.
