Exodus 25:34 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 25:34

And in the candlestick shall be four bowls
That is, in the trunk or body of it; the branches had but three apiece, but this being larger had four: and these were also

made like unto almonds, with their knops and their flowers;
as the bowls on the branches had with them.

Exodus 25:34 In-Context

32 Six branches shall come out of the sides, three out of one side, and three out of the other.
33 Three cups as it were nuts to every branch, and a bowl withal, and a lily: and three cups likewise of the fashion of nuts in the other branch, and a bowl withal, and a lily. Such shall be the work of the six branches, that are to come out from the shaft:
34 And in the candlestick itself shall be four cups in the manner of a nut, and at every one bowls and lilies.
35 Bowls under two branches in three places, which together make six, coming forth out of one shaft.
36 And both the bowls and the branches shall be of the same beaten work of the purest gold.
