EXODUS 37:17 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he made the candlestick of pure gold: of beaten work made he the candlestick; his shaft, and his branch, his bowls, his knops, and his flowers, were of the same:”
They made the lampstand of pure gold and hammered it out, base and shaft; its flowerlike cups, buds and blossoms were of one piece with it. The lampstand — the most technically demanding single piece in the tabernacle — is hammered from pure gold exactly as Exodus 25:31 specified. The one-piece construction: base, shaft, cups, buds, and blossoms emerge from a single piece of hammered gold. The craftsman who can produce a seven-branched lampstand from a single talent of pure gold without joints or seams is the craftsman that Bezalel's Spirit-given skill enables.
