Positive Commandment 25 (For Children)

Kindling the lights of the Menorah in the Beit HaMikdash

Exodus 27:21 "Aaron and his sons shall order it (the burning of the lamps)"

In the main hall of the Beit HaMikdash stood a magnificent golden Menorah.

The priests are commanded to arrange the wicks and kindle the oil lamps every day.

The light of the Menorah would shine brilliantly, enabling it to be seen far beyond the Temple's grounds.
