It depends on what you mean by christmas. Saturnalia has been around I think before Hanukkah. But there are a lot of pagan feast days that were around the time that christmas is now. Christmas as it's known of today (not the decorations, just the celebration day and name) came after Hanukkah as it originated somewhere around 400ad.
Hanukkah did, as it's mentioned in the Bible, in Leviticus, but I'm not sure of the exact chapter and verse.
