Commentary on Numbers 8:4
The detailed description of the lampstand's craftsmanship—pure gold, hammered work, exact replication of the pattern shown to Moses—emphasizes that worship must follow divine revelation. The lampstand wasn't designed by human artistry but according to heavenly pattern. This teaches that true worship conforms to what God has shown us in His word, not what seems beautiful or meaningful to us. The Reformed doctrine of sola scriptura applies to worship—Scripture alone determines how we worship.
