1 Kings 6:25 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 6:25

And the other cherub [was] ten cubits
That is, its wings stretched out measured so many cubits, as did those of the other:

both the cherubim [were] of one measure, and of one size;
of the same height and stature, of the same breadth of their wings, and of the same bulk of their bodies; they were of "image work"; ( 2 Chronicles 3:10 ) ; very probably in the form of men: and this uniformity may denote the perfect agreement of angels; or else the consent of the true faithful witnesses of Christ in all ages, who have all agreed in the person, office, and grace of Christ, as represented by the mercy seat and ark, which these cherubim covered with their wings.

1 Kings 6:25 In-Context

23 And he made in the oracle two cherubim of olive-wood, ten cubits high;

24 and one wing of the cherub was five cubits, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub, ten cubits from the end of one wing to the end of the other wing;

25 and the other cherub was ten cubits: both the cherubim were of one measure and one form.

26 The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so of the other cherub.

27 And he set the cherubim in the midst of the inner house; and the wings of the cherubim were stretched forth, so that the wing of the one touched the wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched, wing to wing, in the midst of the house.
