4:2He asked me, “What do you see?” I replied,2 “I see a menorah of pure gold with a receptacle at the top and seven lamps, with fourteen pipes going to the lamps. 4:3There are also two olive trees beside it, one on the right of the receptacle and the other on the left.”3
Footnotes
- 2 The present translation (along with most other English versions) follows the reading of the Qere and many ancient versions, “I said,” as opposed to the Kethib “he said.”
- 3 The vision apparently describes two olive trees providing olive oil by pipes to a large basin atop the menorah. From this basin two pipes extend to each of the seven lamps of the menorah, for a total of fourteen pipes in all. See vv. 11–12.
