Context of Exodus 37:10

8One cherub stood at one end of the lid and one cherub stood at the other end. He made the two cherubs and the lid from one piece of gold. 9The cherubs looked at each other and they watched over the lid. Their wings touched each other over the top of the lid. Bezalel used acacia wood to make the special table. It was 1 metre long, 50 centimetres wide and 75 centimetres high. 11He covered the wood with gold. He built up the edges of the table with gold. 12He fixed an extra piece of wood around its edge. It was 7 centimetres wide. He built up the edges of this piece with gold.
