First stage.
We must familiarize ourselves with what is written in the Revelation of John the Theologian, chapter four, verse five.
“And from the throne came lightnings and thunders and voices, and seven lamps of fire burned before the throne, which are the seven spirits of God;”
And now, since we see the seven lamps mentioned, we can also enter in the search “seven lamps, the Bible” and see what icons or paintings will appear. There is one of Durer’s paintings, if you enter “seven lamps, Durer” in the search, you will see someone sitting on the painting and around him there are candlesticks with candles and in his hands there are seven stars. You may want to take this into account. The first step is deciphering why there are seven lamps or seven spirits. It’s mentioned in the Revelation of John. You can either read and write it down. And you can also look for icons where seven lamps are also mentioned or ancient illustrations by some artists you can trust. So I enter in the search “icon of seven lamps” and find icons where a man is depicted, in his right hand he has stars, on one side he has three candlesticks, on the other four. Save them. They will help you with deciphering.
