1 Kings 6:23-29

23Inside the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.

24One wing of the cherub was five cubits, and the other wing of the cherub five cubits: ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.

25And the other cherub was ten cubits; both cherubim were of the same size and shape.

26The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.

27Then he set the cherubim inside the inner room; and they stretched out the wings of the cherubim so that the wing of the one touched one wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall. And their wings touched each other in the middle of the room.

28Also he overlaid the cherubim with gold.

29Then he carved all the walls of the temple all around, both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carved figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.
