Maccabiah Games

The Maccabiah Games (aka the World Maccabiah Games; (ヘブライ語:משחקי המכביה) or (ヘブライ語:משחקי המכביה העולמית); plural ''Maccabiot'') are an international Jewish multi-sport event first held in Palestine in 1932 under the British Mandate and since 1950 quadrennially in The State of Israel. It is the third-largest sporting event in the world,〔()〕 with 9,000 athletes competing on behalf of 78 countries.〔()〕 The Maccabiah, which is organized by the Maccabi World Union, was declared a "Regional Sport Event" by, and under the auspices of and supervision of, the International Olympic Committee and international sports federations in 1960.〔Bard and Schwartz, p. 84.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.maccabi.com.au/Maccabiah/Page/1591/Maccabiah-Games-History/History-of-the-Maccabiah-Games.cfm )〕 The Maccabiah is often referred to as the "Jewish Olympics".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.maccabiah.com/about-us )〕〔Nauright, p. 364.〕〔
The 19th Maccabiah, the most recent edition of the Games, was held in 2013. The next edition, the 20th Maccabiah, will be held in July 2017. The most recent Games brought together 9,000 athletes, making it the third-largest international sporting event in the world (after the Olympics and the Pan American Games).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=80 N.J. athletes head to Maccabiah Games in Israel, world's third largest sporting event )〕 The 9000 athletes competed on behalf of 78 countries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Maccabiah Games Welcome 9,000 Athletes )
Originally, the Maccabiah was held every three years; since the 4th Maccabiah, the event is held the year following the Olympic Games. In contrast with other large multi-sport events such as the Olympics, competitions at the Maccabiah are organized into four distinct divisions – Juniors, Open, Masters, and Disabled.〔
Maccabiah is open to Jewish athletes as well as Israeli athletes regardless of religion. Arab Israelis have also competed in it. The Maccabiah is a forum for Jewish athletes to meet and convene, it also provides these athletes with opportunities to explore Israel and Jewish history.〔
== Etymology ==
The name ''Maccabiah'' was chosen after Judah Maccabee, a Jewish leader that defended his country from king Antiochus. Modi'in, Judah's birthplace is also the starting location of the torch that's used to light the flames at the opening ceremony, a tradition that started at the 4th Maccabiah.〔
