* Lights to
illumine the
church, its sanctuary, and the
altar, which must be lit during the
liturgy and other prayers, even if services are held
in daylight. * Inside the sanctuary two
candle lamps must remain constantly lit: one in the eastern niche, and the
other hanging down from the dome above the
altar. During liturgical prayers two large candles
are placed on candlesticks, one to the north and the other to the south of
the altar. * Two wooden or metallic
altar-candlesticks are put on either
sides of the
altar, and not upon it.
* They refer to the two angels who were in the grave of our Lord.
