“Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.”
Exodus 37:17 (BSB)
Context Reading
15He made the poles of acacia wood for carrying the table and overlaid them with gold. 16He also made the utensils for the table out of pure gold: its plates and dishes, as well as its bowls and pitchers for pouring drink offerings. 17Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals. 18Six branches extended from the sides, three on one side and three on the other. 19There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the first branch, each with buds and petals, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches that extended from the lampstand.
