6:23-28 In the inner sanctuary were two cherubim (see study note on 1 Chr 28:18) made of olive wood and overlaid . . . with gold. Standing like sentries facing the door (2 Chr 3:13), their combined wingspan reached from wall to wall. Along with the two smaller cherubim facing each other atop the Ark (Exod 25:17-21), they symbolized the awesome presence of the Most Holy God.
