What Lighting the Lamp Symbolizes
According to Orthodox tradition, we keep a lamp burning in our home as a sign of respect and honor to God, the Virgin Mary, and the saints. Lighting the lamp is a custom with strong Christian symbolism, as this light is compared to the Light of Christ, which illuminates every person, reminding us that as Christians, we must be the light of the world.
The lamp reminds us that our lives should be as bright as those of the saints. It lights up our space and drives away evil, while also being a symbol of offering and gratitude, thanking God for life, salvation, and all the gifts He provides through His infinite love. Moreover, the oil used in the lamp, which should be high-quality olive oil, symbolizes the boundless mercy of God, while the lamp itself represents the Church.
