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.
