What name is given to the candelabrum lit during the eight-day holiday of Hanukkah?
Correct Answer: Menorah
A Menorah (or Hanukkiah) is a nine-branched candelabrum used during the Jewish festival of Hanukkah (the Festival of Lights).
One candle (the shamash, or servant candle) is used to light the others — one additional candle on each of the eight nights of Hanukkah.
The festival celebrates the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem and the miracle of the oil that burned for eight days.
