7
He sculpted two winged angel-cherubim out of hammered gold for the ends of the Atonement-Cover,
8
one angel at one end, one angel at the other. He made them of one piece with the Atonement-Cover.
9
The angels had outstretched wings and appeared to hover over the Atonement-Cover, facing one another but looking down on the Atonement-Cover.
10
He made the Table from acacia wood. He made it three feet long, one and a half feet wide and two and a quarter feet high.
11
He covered it with a veneer of pure gold and made a molding of gold all around it.
