This brings an opportunity to ask a question that has been puzzling me recently: on all these historical sites, menorahs are shown with 6 arms and a place for a 7th candle in the middle. Modern menorahs have 8 arms with a place for a 9th candle in the middle. What is the significance of the 2 different ways of portraying a menorah?
