Exodus 37:17-24
v. 17-24: The candlestick was made from pure, beaten gold, not wood covered with gold ( a). It gave light inside the tabernacle, showing that God’s people are guided by His word, which is like a lamp or a golden candlestick (; b). The candlestick had bowls for oil, and it was decorated with shapes like buds and flowers. This reminds us that God’s word is not only useful, but also beautiful and precious. The light from the candlestick comes from God, and we should be thankful for it and never take it for granted ( c). – – – – – – –
