Tools and Hardware Reviews of Olive Wood Menorah With Star Of David Ornament.
Customer Review: A Correction on the SEVEN candle Menorah
Summary: 4 Stars
The following gives a great explanation of the SEVEN branched menorah, and distinguishes it from the more commonly seen nine branch menorah. Hope this helps. "One of the oldest symbols of the Jewish faith is the menorah, a seven-branched candelabrum used in the Temple. The kohanim lit the menorah in the Sanctuary every evening and cleaned it out every morning, replacing the wicks and putting fresh olive oil into the cups. The illustration at left is based on instructions for construction of the menorah found in Ex. 25:31-40.
It has been said that the menorah is a symbol of the nation of Israel and our mission to be "a light unto the nations." (Isaiah 42:6). The sages emphasize that light is not a violent force; Israel is to accomplish its mission by setting an example, not by using force. This idea is highlighted in the vision in Zechariah 4:1-6. Zechariah sees a menorah, and God explains: "Not by might, nor by power, but by My spirit."
The lamp stand in today's synagogues, called the ner tamid (lit. the continual light, usually translated as the eternal flame), symbolizes the menorah. Many synagogues also have an ornamental menorah, usually with some critical detail changed (for example, with only 6 candles) to avoid the sin of reproducing objects of the Temple.
The nine-branched menorah used on Chanukkah is commonly patterned after this menorah, because Chanukkah commemorates the miracle that a day's worth of oil for this menorah lasted eight days. "
The menorah's seven-branched golden candelabra of the Tabernacle signifies the seven days of creation.
The light emanating from the 7 branched menorah was said to represent the flames of God from the burning bush, but the purpose of 7 branches represented the days. The branches with almond blossom shapes represent the tree of life. The almond is one of the first trees to blossom in the spring in Israel.
Unlike the 9 branched Hanukkiah ( Hanukkah menorah) there is NO elevated Shamash or servant/helper candle for the 7 branched Temple menorah. I state this in response to the story that the center candle being "elevated" represents the Shabbat. The instructions in Exodus and the most ancient images of the Temple menorah do not bear this out as there is no elevated shamash candle depicted.( Including the image on the Arch of Titus of the one the Romans carried off) SOME modern 7 branched menorahs have such a center candle elevated ONLY so that the menorah is not exactly representative of the menorah in the Temple as explained above. Shalom :)"
