Shalom All,
    Here is a comparison of Menorrah's.
    The Temple Menorrah was an emblem of the "creation week".  It had 7 candlestixs.  It's center light (the shamash) was the light that the others were lighted with.  Right?
    In Rev. 2...there is a likeness of this menorrah, but each church is represented by one candlestick.  And G-d/Ya'Shua walk among this menorrah, and give each church a size-ing up, and a call to repentance.
    In Zach.4 we find another menorrah...it is the basic Temple menorrah with an olive branch on either end of it.  And Zach. 4 explains why.  It became the Chanukkah Menorah with 9 lamps.

   I am wondering about the first 9 days of Av, and how they might relate to these menorrah's.  The two olive branches, being two times of G-d/Ya'Shua walking among the candlestixs.  The first time...judgement came on the 9th. of Av, for both of the Temples.
   While the Temples burned, (see the hyper-link for the 1st. post I did today), on Shabbat day, the Livitical Choir sang the Psalm for Wednessday.  The 94th. Psalm; as the blood from the Sabbath days sacrificial blood flowed, and the blood of the people flowed, the Livitical Choir sang Not the song for Sabbath, but the song for the "Day of Vengeance"!
     This year, the 9th. of Av, falls on Wednessday...the song of that day is the 94th. Psalm...about the "Day of Vengeance"!

The first 9 days of Av (like the 9 stick menorrah) have an interesting thing in their line up.
    According to a chart by Greg Killian
everyday is represented by Moses being up on the mountain pleading with YHVH for forgiveness for the incident of the Golden Calf.   And
by the spies searching out the Land of Promise.

Otherwise:

Day 1 (always a New Moon-New beginning day) is represented by the HIGH PRIEST AARON's DEATH   see Num. 33:38
         Ezra arrives in Jerusalem to build the 2nd. Temple   see Ezra 7:9
         People return from Babylon  see Zach.7:3

Day 2....nothing but Moses pleading with YHVH, and the spies searching out the land.
Day3.... "    "     "

Day 4....Nehemiah begins to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem in 444bce  see Neh.6:15
Day 5...the tribe of Judah's assigned time to bring firewood for the Temple see Neh.10:34 and Taanis 26a

Day 6...nothing but Moses pleading with YHVH, and the spies searching the land

Day 7....Nebuchadnezzar begins burning the temple, and breaching the walls of Jerusalem  2nd. Kings25:88-10  and takes the captives to Babylon 2Kings 31:11-12.
            the Rechabites appointed time for supplying the Temple firewood.

Day 8....only Moses pleading with Hashem for forgiveness for the people
             and the spies searching out the promised land.

Day 9...Fast of Av..Zach.7:1-3
            Jacob confronted by Esau  on his return to Canaan.  Gen.33:l and Seder
            HaDorot.
            It was decreed that Israel should not enter the promised land (Mishna, Ta'an
            29a   Num. 13:25
            Jeremiah was born Midrash Yalkut Yiremiyahu 36
            Jerusalem and Solomon's temple are burned and looted  2Kings 25:8-24
            A year later, Micah 3:12 was fulfilled
            A day spoken of in Lam.7:2
            Fast Day of Zach. 8:19
            The Rabbi's say it was the day of the 2nd. Temple burning
             Emperor Hadrian established a heathen temple on Temple Mt. Mishna Ta'an
             29a
             Ezekiel/G-d tell the elders to put away idols   Ez. 20

             sooo we have these days that had something other than Moses Pleadings for the People, and the Spies searching out the land.  I have them in black below.

            Av 1   2     3     4       5      6       7         8       9  years Temples destroy'd.
                Fri              mon  tue             thur             Sat
                    Mon  tues                 wed              fri
The years that the temples were destroyed the days of Av ; 9 fell on Sat. while
Av 6 fell on Wednessday.
    Perhaps they were singing the prophetic line up of our days of Av!

                                    --------------------------------------
              This year 9th of Av is on Wednessday.......  Shabbat on Av 6.

It looks as if the songs of the Levitical Choir could be switched this year ;
                                          OR MAYBE
              The Day of the Lord's Sabbath, will fall on Wednessday,
                                          Or Maybe
              Wednessday, will be the walk thru the menorrah of Rev. 2.  with a two day warning for repentance.  Perhaps, Messiah is pleading for forgiveness for all of G-s people, and the spies are searching out the PROMISED LAND!   And the Olive Branches coming together...to form a New Menorrah!

Shalom,
Meriam
