## 1 Kings 6:24-27 in Context (Verses 21–30 KJV)
 
 [21 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/21) So Solomon overlaid the house within with pure gold: and he made a partition by the chains of gold before the oracle; and he overlaid it with gold.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/22) And the whole house he overlaid with gold, until he had finished all the house: also the whole altar that *was* by the oracle he overlaid with gold.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/23) ¶ And within the oracle he made two cherubims *of* olive tree, *each* ten cubits high.*
 
 [24 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/24) And five cubits *was* the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other *were* ten cubits.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/25) And the other cherub *was* ten cubits: both the cherubims *were* of one measure and one size.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/26) The height of the one cherub *was* ten cubits, and so *was it* of the other cherub.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/27) And he set the cherubims within the inner house: and they stretched forth the wings of the cherubims, so that the wing of the one touched the *one* wall, and the wing of the other cherub touched the other wall; and their wings touched one another in the midst of the house.*
 
 [28 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/28) And he overlaid the cherubims with gold.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/29) And he carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubims and palm trees and open flowers, within and without.*
 
 [30 ](/kjv/1-kings/6/30) And the floor of the house he overlaid with gold, within and without.
