THE SHABBAT CANDLES<br />
THE SHABBAT CANDLES<br />
A married woman customarily lights two candles and may add an additional one for each<br />
<strong>of</strong> her children. An unmarried girl should light one candle in deference to her mo<strong>the</strong>r.<br />
As soon as a young girl can understand <strong>the</strong> idea <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Shabbat and can say <strong>the</strong><br />
blessing (approximately 3 years old) her parents should provide her with a candlestick<br />
and teach her to kindle <strong>the</strong> Shabbat candles. The young girl should light before her<br />
mo<strong>the</strong>r in case she needs assistance from her.<br />
It is customary to put a few coins into a Tzedakah pushka (charity box) before lighting <strong>the</strong><br />
candles.<br />
The correct time to light <strong>the</strong> Shabbat candles is 18 minutes before sunset every Friday.<br />
Young girls should light just prior to this time.<br />
THE FESTIVAL CANDLES<br />
Just as candles are lit in honor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Shabbat so are <strong>the</strong>y lit in honor <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> festivals.<br />
Various blessings are recited on different festivals. See <strong>the</strong> chart Blessings for Festival<br />
Candle Lighting.<br />
Caution: When lighting after <strong>the</strong> onset <strong>of</strong> a festival, a preexisting flame must be used to<br />
light <strong>the</strong> candles since it is prohibited to create a new flame by striking a match or lighter,<br />
etc. However, it is permissible to use (or transfer fire from) a flame burning continuously<br />
since <strong>the</strong> onset <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> festival, such as a pilot light, gas or candle flame.<br />
PROCEDURE FOR LIGHTING THE SHABBAT<br />
CANDLES<br />
The woman (or young girl) lights <strong>the</strong> candles,<br />
<strong>the</strong>n spreads her hands out around <strong>the</strong> candles,<br />
drawing her hands inward in a circular motion<br />
three times to indicate her acceptance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
sanctity <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Shabbat. She <strong>the</strong>n covers her<br />
eyes and says <strong>the</strong> Blessing:<br />
Bo-ruch A-toh Ado-noi E-lol-hei-nu Me-lech Hoolom<br />
A-sher Ki-de-sho-nu Be-mitz-vo-sov Ve-tzivo-nu<br />
Le-had-lik Ner Shel Shabbos Ko-desh.<br />
Blessed are You, L-rd, our G-d, King <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
universe, who has hallowed us through His<br />
commandments, and has commanded us to<br />
kindle <strong>the</strong> light <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> holy Shabbat.<br />
She <strong>the</strong>n uncovers her eyes to behold <strong>the</strong><br />
Shabbat Lights. The time <strong>of</strong> lighting is<br />
considered especially propitious to pray to G-d<br />
for health and happiness. The prayer is readily<br />
accepted because it is said during <strong>the</strong><br />
performance <strong>of</strong> this great mitzvah <strong>of</strong> lighting<br />
<strong>the</strong> Shabbat Candles.<br />
Caution: The candles must be lit before sunset.<br />
It is prohibited and is a desecration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
Shabbat to light <strong>the</strong> candles after sunset.<br />
