1 Kings 6:23-28

23Within the Holy of Holies he made two cherubim (sculptured figures) of olive wood, each ten cubits high.

24One wing of the cherub was five cubits long, and the other wing was also five cubits long; it was ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.

25The [wingspan of the] other cherub was also ten cubits. The measurements and cut (shape) of the two cherubim were the same;

26the height of the one cherub was ten cubits, as was the other.

27He put the cherubim [above the ark] inside the innermost room of the house, and their wings were spread out so that the wing of the one touched one wall, and the wing of the other cherub was touching the other wall; and their inner wings were touching each other in the middle of the house.

28Solomon also overlaid the cherubim with gold.
