נַֽעֲשֶׂה־נָּ֤א עֲלִיַּת־קִיר֙ קְטַנָּ֔ה וְנָשִׂ֨ים ל֥וֹ שָׁ֛ם מִטָּ֥ה וְשֻׁלְחָ֖ן וְכִסֵּ֣א וּמְנוֹרָ֑ה וְהָיָ֛ה בְּבֹא֥וֹ אֵלֵ֖ינוּ יָס֥וּר שָֽׁמָּה׃
Marilah kita membuat sebuah kamar atas yang kecil berdinding tembok, lalu kita sediakan baginya di sana sebuah tempat tidur, sebuah meja, sebuah kursi, dan sebuah kaki pelita. Setiap kali ia datang kepada kita, ia dapat singgah di sana.”
Dirshuni II
If the woman of Shunem had known that the Holy One would write about her, "Let us make a small upper chamber on the wall, and let us set for him there a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp, so that when he comes to us, he can turn in there" (2 Kings 4:10), she would have made him a large upper chamber.
The Third Beit HaMikdash
Although the prophet does not say explicitly whether or not he saw a Menorah, there is no doubt that it will be present in the Future Beis HaMikdash, for the Future Beis HaMikdash will not lack any of the vessels described in the narrative God communicated to Moshe. Furthermore, Rav Yitzchak Abarbanel interprets the phrase,1Yechezkel 41:21. The phrase is translated here according to Rav Yitzchak Abarbanel’s interpretation. According to Rashi and others, it would be translated differently. “Within the holy place, there was a light like a light” as meaning “Inside the Sanctuary (‘within the holy place’), the Menorah radiated light” (“there was a light”) throughout the entire Beis HaMikdash (“that was like a light”, i.e. like the light every person has at home near his table). [This interpretation can be derived from] the Shunamite woman, who says with regard to the prophet Elisha,2II Melachim 4:10. “Let us place there a bed, a table, a chair, and a lamp for him.” The word the Shunamite woman uses for lamp, is “menorah.”
