1 Kings 6:24 Meaning and Commentary

1 Kings 6:24

And five cubits [was] the one wing of the cherub
When stretched out on one side:

and five cubits the other wing of the cherub;
on the other side him:

from the uttermost part of the one wing, to the uttermost part of the
other wing, [were] ten cubits;
half the breadth of the house.

23 Also in the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.
24 Five cubits was the one wing of the cherub and five cubits the other wing of the cherub; from the end of one wing to the end of the other wing were ten cubits.
25 The other cherub was ten cubits; both the cherubim were of the same measure and the same form.
26 The height of the one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.
