On it, and a part of it, were two golden cherubim facing each other, whose outstretched wings came together above and constituted the throne of Yahweh.

P gives an account of: a. two cherubim of solid gold upon the slab of gold of the facing each other with wings outstretched above, so as to constitute a basis or throne on which the כ פ רת glory of Yahweh appeared, and from whence He spake Ex 25:18; -22, 37:7; 9, Nu 7:89; b. numerous cherubim woven into the texture of the inner curtains of the tabernacle and the veils Ex 26:1, 26:31, 36:8, 36:35 5. K and Ch describe the cherubim of the temple: a. two gigantic images of olive wood plated with gold, ten cubits high, standing in the ד ב יר facing the door, whose wings five cubits each, extended, two of them meeting in the middle of the room to constitute the throne, two of them extending

4 to the walls 1 K 6:23; -28, 8:6; -7, 2 Ch 3:10; -13, 5:7; -8; Ch (doubtless influenced by Ez) represents them as the chariot of Yahweh 1 Ch 28:18; b. images of cherubim were carved on the gold plated cedar planks which constituted the inner walls of the temple, and upon the olive wood doors 1 K 6:29; -35, 2 Ch 3:7; and on the bases of the portable lavers, interchanging with lions and oxen 1 K 7:29; -36; Ch also represents that they were woven in the veil of the ד ב יר 2 Ch 3: Ezekiel describes the cherubim: a. as four living creatures, each with four faces, lion, ox, eagle, and man, having the figure and hands of men, and the feet of calves. Each has four wings, two of which are stretched upward, meeting above and sustaining the throne of Yahweh; two of them stretched downwards so as to cover the creatures themselves. The cherubim never turn but go straight forward, as do the wheels of the cherubic chariot, and they are full of eyes and are like burning coals of fire, Ez 1:5; -28, 9:3 10:1; -20, 11:22; the king of Tyre is scornfully compared with one of these, and is assigned a residence in Eden and the mountain of God Ez 28:14; -16; b. Ez knows of no cherubic statues in the new temple, but represents the inner walls of the temple as carved with alternating palm trees and cherubim, each with two faces, the lion looking on one side, the man on the other. It is evident that the number and the form of the cherubim vary in the representations (cf. Ez 41:18; -25). It is probable that the ש ר פ ים of Is 6:2; -6 are another form of the cherubim.
