Although this central part may seem to be inappropriate for general theology (The ark of the covenant is most important), the literary correspondings indicate that the center is the lamp shade with seven branches. The lamp shade would be so-called the "menorah".
The central parts are below:
37:1-9 Making the ark of the covenant
37:10-16 Making the table for the Bread of the presence
37:17-24 Making the lamp shade
37:25-29 Making the altar and anointing oil of incense
38:1-8 Making the altar of burnt offering
The correspondings indicate the relationships between "the ark of the covenant" and "the altar of burnt offering". The author might consider that those have similar meaning about the sacrifice and the covenant." |
