• The dimensions of the candlestick are not, given, the whole interest being centered upon its material, form and use. All was perfect. Number, ordinarily suggested by measured size, is given here in the perfect number, seven. This is the Spirit’s witness to a glorified Christ—He is perfect, divine. Christ is all.
