You are right. Menorah isn't mentioned anywhere in the Bible. Nor is "trinity", nor for that matter "asparagus". What an idiot I've been. Please forgive me.
Let me leave it at this: Lee tried to make it seem that the seven spirits was something novel, that the Holy Spirit needed to become "sevenfold intensified" to respond to the degradation of the churches. So to Lee, something wasn't there, then "became" there.
I was simply trying to say that all John's readers would have (been expected to) understood that there were seven flames burning there, in the Holy of Holies, in front of the Ark of the Covenant, since at least Exodus chapter 25. What connection if any that you want to make is up to you.
