Appears 14 times in Scripture
“And on the lampstand were four cups shaped like almond blossoms with buds and petals.”
“There were three cups shaped like almond blossoms on the first branch, each with buds and petals, three on the next branch, and the same for all six branches that extended from the lampstand.”
“The steward searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest—and the cup was found in Benjamin’s sack.”
“Then you are to make a lampstand of pure, hammered gold. It shall be made of one piece, including its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.”
“But Joseph replied, “Far be it from me to do this. The man who was found with the cup will be my slave. The rest of you may return to your father in peace.””
““What can we say to my lord?” Judah replied. “How can we plead? How can we justify ourselves? God has exposed the iniquity of your servants. We are now my lord’s slaves—both we and the one who was found with the cup.””
“Put my cup, the silver one, in the mouth of the youngest one’s sack, along with the silver for his grain.” So the steward did as Joseph had instructed.”
“Then he made the lampstand out of pure hammered gold, all of one piece: its base and shaft, its cups, and its buds and petals.”
