Exodus 37:17 In-Context

15 He made the poles of acacia wood and covered them with a veneer of gold. They will be used to carry the Table.
16 Out of pure gold he made the utensils for the Table: its plates, bowls, jars, and jugs used for pouring.
17 He made a Lampstand of pure hammered gold, making its stem and branches, cups, calyxes, and petals all of one piece.
18 It had six branches, three from one side and three from the other;
19 three cups shaped like almond blossoms with calyxes and petals on one branch, three on the next, and so on - the same for all six branches.
