Bible verse
and the height of each cherub was ten cubits.
1 Kings 6:26 · BSB
The verses around it, from 1 Kings 6.
22 So he overlaid with gold the whole interior of the temple, until everything was completely finished. He also overlaid with gold the entire altar that belonged to the inner sanctuary.
23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim, each ten cubits high, out of olive wood.
24 One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long, and the other wing was five cubits long as well. So the full wingspan was ten cubits.
25 The second cherub also measured ten cubits; both cherubim had the same size and shape,
26 and the height of each cherub was ten cubits.
27 And he placed the cherubim inside the innermost room of the temple. Since their wings were spread out, the wing of the first cherub touched one wall, while the wing of the second cherub touched the other wall, and in the middle of the room their wingtips touched.
28 He also overlaid the cherubim with gold.
29 Then he carved the walls all around the temple, in both the inner and outer sanctuaries, with carved engravings of cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers.
30 And he overlaid the temple floor with gold in both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
