1 Kings 6:25
Verse 25 of 38. The 6th of 22 chapters in 1 Kings, in History.
21So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold. He drew chains of gold across before the inner sanctuary, and he overlaid it with gold.
22He overlaid the whole house with gold, until all the house was finished. He also overlaid the whole altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary with gold.
23In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.
24Five cubits was the length of one wing of the cherub, and five cubits was the length of the other wing of the cherub. From the tip of one wing to the tip of the other was ten cubits.
25The other cherub was ten cubits. Both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.
26One cherub was ten cubits high, and so was the other cherub.
27He set the cherubim within the inner house. The wings of the cherubim were stretched out, so that the wing of the one touched the one wall and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the middle of the house.
28He overlaid the cherubim with gold.
29He carved all the walls of the house around with carved figures of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers, inside and outside.
