The Cherubim
23 For the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim[a] of olive wood. Each one was fifteen feet tall. 24 Seven and a half feet was the length of one wing of a cherub, and seven and a half feet was the length of the other wing of a cherub. The distance from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other was fifteen feet.[b] 25 The other cherub also was fifteen feet wide. Both of the cherubim were the same size and looked the same.
