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

And the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one size.

And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD unto its place, into the inner sanctuary of the house, to the most holy place, even under the wings of the cherubim.

For the cherubim spread forth their two wings over the place of the ark, and the cherubim covered the ark and its poles above.

And over it the cherubim of glory shadowing the mercy seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.
