The Lord is said to have blessed the Sabbath and this Biblical -statement was inter- preted to mean that he blessed it with much light. Some of the sources in rabbinic literature (Shaloh) mention a custom of lighting as many as ten candles for the Sabbath. Isaac Luria, the famed Kabbalist is quoted as calling for seven candles to be lit for the Sabbath. The lat- ter figure is supposed to sym- bolize the seven days of the week which come to their full reality by the coming of the Sabbath. Seven candles also symbolize the 7,000th year which is sup- posed to witness the coming of the Messiah and a world lit around the clock. Later customs developed the tradition of light- ing a candle for every person in the home. Some insist on light- ing seven candles to symbolize the menorah in the temple claiming that a Jewish home on the Sabbath is like the Temple.
