Hello,
After much thought, I have devised a new interpretation of the metaphor
of the seven eyes on one stone. I now believe that the eyes are seven
precision windows or ranges used by the brain's memory mechasnism to
record intervals. This interpretation makes it clear, among other
things, why each of the seven lamps in Zecahriah 4:2 are said to have
seven pipes. Each pipe is associated with a given eye on a single stone
(Joshua). Since the eyes are said to range throughout the whole land,
one cannot conclude that there are forty-nine eyes per lampstand. The
number remains seven. Check it out.
