Carved Work.

This was much used in the Temple. "He carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim, and palm-trees, and open flowers." They were then overlaid with gold. 1 Kings 6:18, 1 Kings 1:6. The Psalmist prophetically laments its being broken down by the enemy with axes and hammers. Psalms 74:6. For the 'carved images' of idolatry, Judges 18:18; 2 Chronicles 1:33, 2 Chronicles 1:33; 2 Chronicles 1:34, 2 Chronicles 1:34, another word is used, which is elsewhere translated 'graven image.'
