In blowing out the two lit candles on my glass table, it splashed melted wax all over the top of the glass table. How and what do I use to to quickly, effectively and cleanly remove the harden wax ?

I would use a single edge razor blade scraper, can get one at Dollar Tree or any hardware store. Hold it at a 45 degree angle to scrape it off.
Hi Steven, you can use a plastic scraper to scrape off most of the wax. You can soften the wax with warm blow dryer. If you don't have one, you can use alcohol on a soft cloth. Here's an article that provides even more ideas. One may be more agreeable to you than another.

You could heat it up with a blow dryer. Wax in its liquid form is much easier to clean up them hardened wax. After the wax has melted use a damp cloth to wipe up the excess and some glass cleaner to get rid of any left behind residue.
A credit card should work to scrape it off. A warm damp cloth to remove any residue.
I started to answer, then realized I'd answered this post nearly a year ago! Same advice 11 months later. Use a razor blade or plastic scraper!
