Exodus 37:18 In-Context

16 He made the containers of pure gold that were to be on the table: its plates, dishes, bowls, and jars for pouring drink offerings.

17 He also made the lampstand of pure, hammered gold. The lampstand's base, branches, cups, flowers, and petals were all attached to it.

18 It had six branches growing out from its sides, three branches on one side of the lampstand and three branches on the other side of the lampstand.

19 One branch had three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a flower and petals, and the next branch also had three cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with a flower and petals. A total of six branches grew out of the lampstand.

20 In addition, on the lampstand itself there were four cups shaped like almond blossoms, each with its flower and petals.
