The
Hanukkah menorah (Hebrew: מנורה
menorah) (also Hebrew: חַנֻכִּיָּה
Hanukiah,
or chanukkiyah, pl. hanukiyot/chanukkiyot, or
Yiddish: חנוכּה
לאמפּ khanike lomp,
lit.: Hanukkah lamp) is, strictly speaking, a
nine-branched candelabrum lit during the eight-day
holiday of Hanukkah, as opposed to the seven-branched
menorah used in the ancient Temple or as a symbol.
The ninth holder, called the shamash ("helper
or servant"), is for a candle used to light
all other candles. The menorah is among the most
widely produced articles of Jewish ceremonial
art. The menorah is a traditional symbol of Judaism,
along with the Star of David.
