Bowl:
The sockets of the lamps of the golden candlestick of the tabernacle are called bowls (Exd 25:31,33,34; 37:17,19,20); the same word so rendered being elsewhere rendered "cup" (Gen 44:2,12,16), and wine "pot" (Jer 35:5). The reservoir for oil, from which pipes led to each lamp in Zechariah's vision of the candlestick, is called also by this name (Zec 4:2,3); so also are the vessels used for libations (Exd 25:29; 37:16).
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
