The Hanukkah-menorah (Hanukkiyah) has 8 spots for the candles and 1 spot for the "shamash" which is used to light the other candles. It is lit on the eight nights of Hanukkah, at or after sunset. On Friday afternoon it is lit before sunset.
You use the Menorah on special occasions such as, anniversaries, birthdays and weddings.
Answer:The Hanukkah-menorah is lit on the eight evenings of Hanukkah (and at no other time).If you are talking about a 9-branched Hanukkah menorah, it is usually only displayed during the eight days of Hanukkah.
If you are talking about a regular 7-branched menorah, it can be displayed all year round, usually in a china cabinet or on a shelf.
The seven branched menorah is generally only used for decoration. It can be lit for Shabbat but this is rare.
The anagram is "menorah" (the seven-branch Jewish candelabra).
the Menorah
The Menorah - The menorah is the oldest symbol of the Jewish faith. It is the seven branched candelabra that stood in the Temple.
Most people think it is the Star of David, which is a common mistake. The true symbol is the seven branch menorah which stood in the Temple in Jerusalem.
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.
The Hebrew religious symbol is spelled menorah (seven or nine branch candelabrum).
The menorah in the Tabernacle (Exodus ch.25) was a seven-branched candelabrum, symbolizing the 7 days of creation. Another type, called a Hanukkiyah (Hanukkah-menorah) has 9 branches and is only used on Hanukkah.
There is no such thing as a Jewish chandelier. If you are talking about the menorah, it is a candelabra with seven branches, one for each day of the week.
The candelabrum is called a menorah. See Exodus ch.25.
If you are asking if there are names for the seven branches of the menorah, there aren't.
The menorah
A menorah can have any design or words on it. It depends on the menorah. There is no rule about this.
