All of God's appointed times have prophetic significance. Hanukkah isn't one of the times God appointed in the Law, but it still commemorate events that are part of a Scriptural, prophetic pattern.
Hanukkah starts at sunset tonight!

Bilhah and Zilpah are called Jacob's wives in Genesis 37:2. But...but... weren't they just concubines? That depends on what you mean by "just".
In the ancient Hebrew culture of the Bible, a concubine was a wife with the added obligations of servitude. She wasn't a prostitute, temporary wife, or "side thing". Her husband had to provide for her just like he did for a free wife and he couldn't kick her out when he was tired of her.

Deuteronomy 11:8-9 Therefore shall ye keep all the commandments which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and go in and possess the land, whither ye go to possess it;
And that ye may prolong your days in the land, which YHVH sware unto your fathers to give unto them and to their seed, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

Bind [my instructions] on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart.
Proverbs 7:3
Bind them on your fingers - Don't touch anything except through gloves of Torah. Let your touch be God's touch. Ask yourself, how would God touch, hold, and change this?
The tablet of your heart - Memorization is great, but this is more than that. It means to internalize it, and this only comes by repeated and habitual meditation. It means to think through the lens of Torah.
