Contextual Overview
10 And he made the table of planks of acacia; two cubits long, and a cubit wide, and a cubit and a half high. 11 And he overlaid it with pure gold; and he made for it a wreath of gold all around. 12 And he made for it a border of a hand's breadth all around. And he made a wreath of gold for its border all around. 13 And he cast for it four rings of gold; and he put the rings on the four corners, which were to its four feet. 14 The rings were near the border, the housings for the poles, to carry the table. 15 And he made the poles of acacia wood; and he overlaid them with gold, to lift up the table. 16 And he made the vessels which were on the table, its platters and its bowls, and its sacrificial cups, and its pitchers by which a drink offering is made, with pure gold. 17 And he made the lampstand of pure gold; he made the lampstand of beaten work, its side, and its branch, its calyxes, its knobs and its blossoms were from it. 18 And six branches went out from its sides; three branches of the lampstand from one side, and three branches of the lampstand from its second side. 19 Three almond-like bowls were on the one branch, with knob and blossom; and three almond-like bowls on the one branch, with knob and blossom; so for the six branches, those going out from the lampstand.
