Exodus 37:17 In-Context

15 The poles for carrying the table were made of acacia wood and were covered with gold.
16 He made of pure gold all the things that were used on the table: the plates, bowls, cups, and jars used for pouring the drink offerings.
17 Then he made the lampstand of pure gold, hammering out its base and stand. Its flower-like cups, buds, and petals were joined together in one piece with the base and stand.
18 Six branches went out from the sides of the lampstand -- three on one side and three on the other.
19 Each branch had three cups shaped like almond flowers, and each cup had a bud and a petal. Each of the six branches going out from the lampstand was the same.
