Exodus 25:31-40: The Golden Candlestick (Lampstand)

This passage describes the making of the golden candlestick, or lampstand, for the tabernacle. The candlestick was made of pure gold and was both beautiful and practical. It had seven lamps to give light inside the tabernacle, which had no windows. The candlestick is an important symbol, showing that God’s people need His light and guidance. Every detail was given by God, reminding us that worship must follow His instructions exactly.

v. 31-36: The candlestick was made from one piece of pure gold, carefully shaped with a main shaft and six branches—three on each side. It was decorated with cups shaped like almond flowers, with knobs and blossoms. This made it both useful and beautiful (Exodus 25:31-36 a).
