Menorah: Worship, History, Legend

"Menorah: Worship, History, Legend" is a 2017 museum exhibition sponsored jointly by the Vatican Museums and the Jewish Museum of Rome.[1]

Magdala stone

Context edit

Menorah refers both to the Menorah with eight candleholders and a ninth to hold the "servant" candle used on the Jewish holiday of Chanukah, and to the large, 7-branched solid gold Menorah used in the ancient Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. The original gold menorah from the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem is not on display.[2]

Exhibition edit

The exhibition features 130 objects, including menorahs and images of menorahs, loaned by 20 museums, including the Louvre and the National Gallery in London.[2] It ran from 15 May through 23 July 2017.[3][4]

Major artifacts in exhibition edit

  • Magdala stone. The exhibition marks the first time that the Magdala Stone, discovered during a 2009 archaeological dig, has left Israel.[5]
  • Menorah designed by Joel Arthur Rosenthal. The sole work commissioned for this exhibition, it is the only piece of Jewish ceremonial art that Rosenthal has ever produced.[6]
