Context of Exodus 37:10

8He molded the cherubim on each end of the atonement cover, making it all of one piece of gold. 9The cherubim faced each other and looked down on the atonement cover. With their wings spread above it, they protected it. Then Bezalel made the table of acacia wood, 36 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 27 inches high. 11He overlaid it with pure gold and ran a gold molding around the edge. 12He decorated it with a 3-inch border all around, and he ran a gold molding along the border.
