He made two cherubim of gold. He made them of hammered metal on the two ends of the mercy seat:
He makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flaming fire.
Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, You who lead Joseph like a flock; You who are enthroned between the cherubim, shine forth!
He made the mercy seat of pure gold, two and a half cubits long and one and a half cubits wide.
one cherub on one end, and one cherub on the other end. Of one piece with the mercy seat he made the cherubim on its two ends.
And He spoke to the man clothed with linen and said, “Go in between the wheels under the cherubim and fill your hands with coals of fire from among the cherubim and scatter them over the city.” And he entered in my sight.
