Context of Exodus 37:15
13He cast four gold rings for it and attached the rings at the four corners where its four legs were. 14The rings were close to the frame to provide places for the poles to carry the table. He made the poles of acacia wood and overlaid them with gold, to carry the table. 16He made the vessels which were on the table out of pure gold, its plates, its ladles, its pitchers, and its bowls, to be used in pouring out offerings. 17He made the lampstand of pure gold. He made the lampstand of hammered metal; its base and its shaft, its cups, its buds, and its blossoms were from the same piece.
