What is the importance of the Hanukkiah?
The Hanukkah menorah (Hanukkah lamp) is a nine-branched candelabrum lit during the eight-day holiday of Hanukkah, as opposed to the seven-branched menorah used in the ancient Temple (Exodus ch.25) or as a symbol.The ninth holder, called the shamash ("helper" or "servant"), is for a candle used to light all other candles and/or to be used as an extra light.The menorah is among the most widely produced articles of Jewish ceremonial art.The menorah is often displayed in public around Hanukkah time (in December or late November).The seven-branched menorah has been a traditional symbol of Judaism for centuries, along with the Star of David.The lamp is most commonly called a "Hanukkah menorah," or simply "menorah" for short; and in Modern Hebrew it is called a chanukkiyah, while the Hebrew word menorah is used to mean "lamp."Since 1979, the White House has been represented at the lighting of a national menorah in celebration of Hanukkah. In the United Kingdom, the House of Commons of the United Kingdom each year holds a menorah lighting at the official residence of the Speaker of the House of Commons.One or more Hanukkah-menorahs are lit in each Jewish home during the eight nights of Hanukkah. This is a religious ceremony, with blessings to God and traditional songs of praise.The flames of the menorah symbolize the eight days of the miracle of the oil (see details in the attached Link)
What are the 7 Jewish candles called?
The seven-branched candelabrum, known as the "Menorah" and described in great detail in Exodus, was one of the major implements first in the traveling 'Mishkan' after the Exodus from Egypt, and later in the First and Second Holy Temples in Jerusalem. The more recent Temple was sacked and looted by the Romans some 1,940 years ago, in the year 70, and its implements carried off. Their whereabouts are unknown, and the Menorah plays no significant role in Judaism except as an historical symbol, since then.
