King James Bible - Numbers 8:2

Speak unto Aaron, and say unto him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.

World English Bible

"Speak to Aaron, and tell him, 'When you light the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand.'"

Douay-Rheims - Numbers 8:2

Speak to Aaron, and thou shalt say to him: When thou shalt place the seven lamps, let the candlestick be set up on the south side. Give orders therefore that the lamps look over against the north, towards the table of the leaves of proposition, over against that part shall they give light, towards which the candlestick looketh.

Webster's Bible Translation

Speak to Aaron, and say to him, When thou lightest the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:2

Habla a Aarón, y dile: Cuando encendieres las lámparas, las siete lámparas arderán frente a la faz del candelero.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Numbers 8:2

Verse 2. The seven lamps shall give light] The whole seven shall be lighted at one time, that seven may be ever burning.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 2. Speak unto
Aaron, and say unto him , etc.] It being his work to light the lamps, though, as Ben Gersom observes, it was not incumbent on an high priest alone to do this, for it also belonged to the sons of Aaron, who were common priests, ( Exodus 27:21); though it is probable that as this was the first time of lighting them, it might be done by Aaron himself, his sons attending and assisting him; in which he was an eminent type of Christ, the great High Priest, who lights the lamps in all his golden candlesticks, the churches, ( Revelation 1:20), and from whom they have all their light and all the supplies of it: when thou lightest the lamps ; which was done at evening, ( Exodus 30:8); pointing at the great light set up by Christ, the light of the world, in the evening of it, in the last days: the seven lamps shall give light over against the candlestick ; the Targum of Jonathan is, “at the same time of thy lighting the lamps over against the candlestick, there shall be seven lamps giving light: three on the west side and three on the east side, and the seventh in the middle:” and in the like order Jarchi places them, who observes, that the three eastward looked over against the middlemost, the wicks that were in them; and so the three westward, the tops of the wicks were over against the middlemost: and he also observes, that the middlemost lamp was no other than the body of the candlestick, and so all the rest of the lamps were over against and looked to that; and this is the sense of Maimonides f80 , and other Jewish writers; but the truer meaning of the phrase is, that the seven lamps gave light, as they were to do, to that part of the holy place that was opposite to the candlestick, the north part of it, where stood the shewbread table, the candlestick being in the south, ( Exodus 40:22,24); that the table of the Lord might have light, as it was proper it should; and the priests might see to set on and take off the bread, which otherwise they could not, there being no window in the place; (see Gill on “ Exodus 25:37”).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-4 -
Aaron himself lighted the lamps, thus representing his Divine Master The Scripture is a light shining in a dark place, 2Pe 1:19. A dar place even the church would be without it; as the tabernacle, which ha no window, would have been without the lamps. The work of ministers is to light these lamps, by expounding and applying the word of God. Jesu Christ is the only Light of our dark, sinful world; and by his atonement, by his word and the Holy Spirit, he diffuses light around.
