Most people know where to put their Menorah on Chanukah, but not everyone knows how high it should be. Can it go on the floor? How tall is too tall? And does the Halacha change inside the house? In today’s Daily Halacha, Rabbi Yaacov Haber explains the ideal Menorah height according to the Shulchan Aruch and the Poskim: not below three Tefachim, and ideally below ten Tefachim - measured by the flame, not the Menorah itself. We examine the reasoning behind these measurements, including considerations of visibility, Kavod, and the views of the Mishnah Berurah, Pri Megadim, and Chazon Ish regarding the placement of the menorah on stools, tables, or very tall candelabras. 💬 Questions about your menorah setup?
