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.

1 Kings 6:24 In-Context

22 The whole temple he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the temple; also he overlaid with gold the entire altar that was by the inner sanctuary.
23 Inside the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olive wood, each ten cubits high.
24 One wing of the cherub was five cubits, and the other wing of the cherub five cubits: ten cubits from the tip of one wing to the tip of the other.
25 And the other cherub was ten cubits; both cherubim were of the same size and shape.
26 The height of one cherub was ten cubits, and so was the other cherub.
