Hanukkah is a Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Second Temple in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire.

It is also known as the Festival of Lights and the Feast of Dedication. The festival is observed by lighting the candles of a candelabrum with nine branches, called a Hanukkah menorah . One branch is typically placed above or below the others and its candle is used to light the other eight candles. This unique candle is called the shamash . Each night, one additional candle is lit by the shamash until all eight candles are lit together on the final night of the holiday.
