Dehwa Hanina Also called Dihba Hanina , Dihba Hnina , Dehwa Ṭurma , Dihba ḏ-Ṭirma Observed by Mandaeans Type Religious Significance Little Feast celebrating Hibil Ziwa 's ascent from the underworld
In the Mandaean calendar , Dehwa Hanina (Classical Mandaic : ࡃࡉࡄࡁࡀ ࡄࡍࡉࡍࡀ , romanized: Dihba Hnina ) or Dehwa Ṭurma (Dihba ḏ-Ṭirma ), the Little Feast, is celebrated on the 18th day of Taura , which is the 4th month of the Mandaean calendar that corresponds to the Hebrew month Iyar .[1]
Dehwa Hanina commemorates the ascension of Hibil Ziwa from the underworld (World of Darkness) to the World of Light . Mandaean families visit each other and have a special breakfast of rice, yogurt, dates, and sesame seeds.[2] Baptisms are performed, and the dead are commemorated with lofani (ritual meals). Mandaean families also clean their houses, wear new clothes, light candles, burn incense , and pray.[3] : 25
Symbolism [ edit ]
The festival symbolizes three things:[3] : 26
The victory of light over darkness, and the re-balancing of the universe
Creation of light and life on Tibil , and the birth of Ptahil from the marriage of Hibil and Zahriel
The masiqta of Gabriel: baptizing him 360 times before re-entering the World of Light
