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.

25 Both angels had a 15-foot [wingspan]. Both had the same measurements and the same shape.

26 Each was 15 feet high.

27 Solomon put the angels in the inner room of the temple. The wings of the angels extended so that the wing of one of the angels touched the one wall, and the wing of the other touched the other wall. Their remaining wings touched each other in the center of the room.
