1 Kings 6:23-33

23In the inner Sanctuary he made two cheruvim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.

24The length of one wing of the cheruv was five ­cubits and the length of the other wing of the cheruv was five cubits—ten cubits from the end of one wing to the end of the other,

25and the other cheruv was also ten cubits. Both cheruvim were the same in measure and form:

26the height of the one cheruv was ten cubits and so the other cheruv.

27Then he placed the cheruvim inside the inner House. When the wings of the cheruvim extended, the wing of the one touched one wall while the wing of the other cheruv touched the other wall, while their wings in the center of the House touched one another.

28He also overlaid the cheruvim with gold.

29Then he carved all the walls surrounding the House with carved engravings of cheruvim, palm trees and open flowers, in both the inner and outer rooms,

30and he also covered the floor of both the inner and the outer rooms of the House with gold.

31For the entrance of the inner Sanctuary he made doors of olive wood, the frame of the doorposts having five angles.

32As for the double doors of olive wood, he carved on them carvings of cheruvim, palm trees and open flowers, and overlaid them with gold. He beat out gold over the cheruvim and over the palm trees.

33He also made for the Temple entrance four-sided doorposts of olive wood
