1 Kings 6:23-33

23In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubs of olive wood; each stood 15 feet high.

24Each of the first cherub’s wings was seven and a half feet long; its entire wingspan was 15 feet.

25The second cherub also had a wingspan of 15 feet; it was identical to the first in measurements and shape.

26Each cherub stood 15 feet high.

27He put the cherubs in the inner sanctuary of the temple. Their wings were spread out. One of the first cherub’s wings touched one wall and one of the other cherub’s wings touched the opposite wall. The first cherub’s other wing touched the second cherub’s other wing in the middle of the room.

28He plated the cherubs with gold.

29On all the walls around the temple, inside and out, he carved cherubs, palm trees, and flowers in bloom.

30He plated the floor of the temple with gold, inside and out.

31He made doors of olive wood at the entrance to the inner sanctuary; the pillar on each doorpost was five-sided.

32On the two doors made of olive wood he carved cherubs, palm trees, and flowers in bloom, and he plated them with gold. He plated the cherubs and the palm trees with hammered gold.

33In the same way he made doorposts of olive wood for the entrance to the main hall, only with four-sided pillars.
