1 Kings 6:23-28

23In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim 15 feet high out of olive wood.

24One wing of the first cherub was 7½ feet long, and the other wing was 7½ feet long. The wingspan was 15 feet from tip to tip.

25The second cherub also was 15 feet; both cherubim had the same size and shape.

26The first cherub’s height was 15 feet and so was the second cherub’s.

27Then he put the cherubim inside the inner temple. Since their wings were spread out, the first one’s wing touched one wall while the second cherub’s wing touched the other wall, and in the middle of the temple their wings were touching wing to wing.

28He also overlaid the cherubim with gold.
