1 Kings 6:23

The Cherubim

22So he overlaid with gold the whole interior of the temple, until everything was completely finished. He also overlaid with gold the entire altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary.23In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim, each ten cubits high, out of olive wood.24One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long, and the other wing was five cubits long as well. So the full wingspan was ten cubits.
