Note: Candelabra or oil lamps having seven branches, modeled after the item that is said to have been used in the ancient temple in Jerusalem. The cup atop the central shaft, which is somewhat elevated to signify the Sabbath, is flanked by three lights on each side. For the eight-branched candelabra or lamps used for Hannukah, use "Hanukkah lamps." |

Arabic ..... الشمعدانات أو مصابيح الزيت ذات السبعة فروع، على غرار القطعة التي يقال إنها كانت تستخدم في المعبد القديم في القدس. الكأس الموجود أعلى العمود المركزي، وهو مرتفع إلى حد ما للدلالة على السبت، محاط بثلاثة أضواء على كل جانب. بالنسبة للشمعدانات أو المصابيح ذات الثمانية فروع المستخدمة في عيد حانوكا، استخدم "مصابيح حانوكا". |
Dutch ..... Kandelaars of olielampen met zeven armen, gemodelleerd naar de kandelaar die in de oude tempel van Jeruzalem zou zijn gebruikt. De houder van de centrale arm, die iets hoger ligt ter aanduiding van de sabbat, wordt geflankeerd door drie lichten aan weerszijden. Gebruik 'chanoekalampen' voor de achtarmige kandelaars of lampen die voor Chanoeka worden gebruikt. |
