And Aaron did so; he lighted the lamps thereof over against the candlestick, as the LORD commanded Moses.
Ver. 3. He lighted the lamps.] This candlestick, on the south side of the tabernacle, over against the table, figured the law of God shining in his Church; Proverbs 6:23 2Pe 1:19 and the lighting of one lamp from another, showed the opening of one text by another. The Rabbins have a saying, Nulla est obiectio in lege quae non habet solutionem in latere; i.e., there is not any doubt in the law, but may be resolved in the context.
