The Eternal Light, ner tamid (נר תמיד), represents the menorah of the Temple in Jerusalem as well as the continuously burning fire on the altar in front of the Temple. It also symbolizes God's eternal presence, and is therefore never extinguished. It is symbolizes the light released from the shards of the receptacles that God used to create light and goodness. These lights are never allowed to dim or go out.
