Frequently asked
What is a menorah and why is it important?
A menorah is a candelabrum with seven or nine branches used in Jewish religious observance. The seven-branched menorah is one of Judaism's oldest symbols, appearing in ancient temples. During Hanukkah, the nine-branched menorah (called a hanukkiah) holds candles representing the eight-day festival plus the shamash, a helper candle.
What does Hanukkah celebrate?
Hanukkah, also called the Festival of Lights, celebrates a historic Jewish victory and the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem around 165 BCE. According to tradition, a small amount of oil miraculously lasted eight days, which is why the holiday lasts eight days and features candles lit each evening.
How many candles does a menorah have?
A traditional menorah has seven branches and seven candles, symbolizing the days of creation in Jewish tradition. A hanukkiah, used specifically for Hanukkah, has nine branches: eight for each day of the festival, plus a ninth branch holding the shamash, a special candle used to light the others.
