Love lots of these comments, very cogent and insightful--especially by those who love to Study God's Word. Also the innocent ones from the youngters are precious. The one from the Phd is the most far off. As an apostle said of that type of people they are "ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth." A candlestick in Hebrew--and Jesus is the Hebrew God, and John is a Hebrew--is filled with finely beaten olive oil that burns. This candle is made out of metal to hold the oil. The Phd who made the comment above is beholden to a Western religious construct having no spiritual insight. Hebrews are semitic/oriental peoples: they are not "westernized" nor is the Judeo-Christian theology a western construct as some "over-learners" erroneously attest. (Hence the phrase "That's a lot of bees wax. Har har.)
