Is it wrong for a Catholic to participate in any of the traditional Jewish holidays?

[Fatherzach3]

Is it wrong for a Catholic to participate in Hannukah or Passover, or any of the traditional Jewish holidays? Christ Himself celebreates the Feast of the Dedication in John, and Passover in all Gospels at the Last Supper. Now is it wrong for us to participate in these events today? Personally I’d love to have more holidays, especially the Holy ones perscribed by God.
