There's a Hanukah story called "A Marrano family"  of Anusim (Maronos)
don Jose and his family running away from the Spanish Inquisition with
their menorah. I have only part I.. Any chance someone has part II?
Also, the Shavuos story of the origin of Mount Moriah's holiness with
the two brothers sharing their sheaves - I taught a group of Arab
pupils and we had a lively discussion about sharing, equality and
communism...
