Context of Exodus 37:16

14The rings were put close to the rim to hold the poles for carrying the table. 15These poles were made out of acacia wood and were covered with gold. For the table he made plates, dishes, bowls, and pitchers to be used for pouring wine offerings. All of them were made out of pure gold. 17He made the lamp stand out of pure gold. The lamp stand, its base, and its shaft, as well as the flower cups, buds, and petals were hammered out of one piece ⌞of gold⌟. 18Six branches came out of its sides, three branches on one side and three on the other.
