Context of Exodus 37:7
5And he put the staffs into the rings by the sides of the ark, to bear the ark. 6And he made the mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half was the length of it, and one cubit and a half the breadth of it. And he made two cherubim of gold, beaten out of one piece he made them, on the two ends of the mercy seat; 8One cherub on the end on this side, and another cherub on the other end on that side: out of the mercy seat made he the cherubim on its two ends. 9And the cherubim spread out their wings on high, and covered with their wings over the mercy seat, with their faces one to another; even toward the mercy seat were the faces of the cherubim.
