The scriptures in the OT with only one lampstand mentioned like when there is only one lampstand in the Tabernacle,it is because there was no blood on the cross at that time.Only water.
The two olive trees are the source where we get our oil from to fill up our lamps.You see it in Zechariah 4 where the pipes feed the oil into the lamps.
The Two olive trees represent the water and the blood.They represent God's covenants.
And you see them on the cross at the death of Jesus.The repenting thief is the water and the other thief on the right is the blood.
There is no prophet being represented at the cross.But the Law is.(water)
At the cross you see the spirit,water,and the blood.Jesus gave up the ghost on the cross.
If one of the olive trees represents the prophets,why weren't they there on the cross as a witness?
You can't say that Jesus disciples who watched him die on the cross represents the prophets, because if that were true,that would make them in the image of one of the two cherubim, and not in the image of the crown of gold that surrounds the table/lid.
The crown of Gold was there too.it was all those who watched his death.

At 1:13 are his Two Witnesses,the water and the blood.They are the two olive trees spoken of in Zechariah 4.
At the cross,the thief on the left represents the water because he repented,and the thief on the right represents the blood.
The cross of Jesus is in the middle.He is the spirit.

1 John 5:6-8
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.

At :30 in the video the crown of gold round about the Ark represents the 12 tribes of Israel.In Zechariah 4 they are the two lampstands.
Those who watched his death at the cross are the crown of gold/two lampstands.Did they not testify of Jesus afterwards?

At :29 the 4 rings are signet rings.Two rings for each covenant.theses are the wheel within a wheel in Ezekiel's vision.

At :41 is the staff of Moses and Aaron, and they are also the stick of Joseph that was in the hand of Ephraim
and the stick of Judah.

Who carried the Ark of the Covenant?the remnant.As first fruits they are first to have a staff and Gods signet ring.The rest of us too in the millennial rein.

Just like how the Apostles went out and preached the gospel and those who heard and believed also went out and did the same.

God had the Ark made the way it was for a purpose.I doubt I'll understand everything on why he made it the way he did.But the top lid is the earth.
The same goes for his word.It's filled with these hidden treasures.To the world, it is foolish.To the flesh, it is foolish.The flesh is born of flesh.And the spirit is born of spirit.And his words are spirit.
These are what spiritual truths are.I'm not going beyond what was written when I say this,because it was written.

Agree 100%. These Gentile believers were being convinced to be circumcised and obey the law as a Jew, a burden too heavy for anyone but Christ.

Galatians 5
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
