"I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lamp stands, " (Revelation 1:12)
John turns to "see the voice" and saw "seven golden lampstands," The candlestick of pure gold in the Tabernacle had six branches, three on one side, three on the other, and one in the center. Seven lamps give light to the Holy Tent.1 "Seven golden lampstands," is also a picture from Solomon's great Temple. There were five candlesticks of pure gold on the right hand and five on the left, "a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl on the top of it, and seven lamps on it."2 The candlesticks indicate to John the seven churches in that area on the road to Ephesus which were intended to be a light to the world.
