1 Kings 6:27

He set the cherubims within the inner house With their faces toward the sanctuary, so that they looked upon him that entered the oracle. They stretched forth the wings of the cherubims Or, rather, the cherubims stretched forth their wings. So that the wing of one touched one wall, &c. That is, they touched the south and north walls of the house. Whereas the wings of those cherubim that Moses made, stretched themselves from east to west. For they looked one upon the other over the mercy-seat. Their wings touched one another in the midst of the house Where they must needs meet, being five cubits long on each side, and the house twenty cubits wide.
