How does the lampstand in Exodus represent Christ and His redemption?

Answered in 1 source

The lampstand represents Christ, symbolizing His light and the redemption He accomplished for His church.

The lampstand in Exodus 25 serves as a type of Christ, designed following God's pattern to represent His light and the redemptive work He accomplished. As Hebrews 10:1 indicates, these elements are shadows of significant truths to come, specifically pointing to Christ and the salvation He provides. The continuous lighting of the lamps by the priests signifies the ongoing work of Christ, our High Priest, who illuminates the hearts of believers through the Holy Spirit. Thus, the lampstand not only represents the presence of Christ but also the vital role of the church in spreading this light to the world, fulfilling the Great Commission.
