Exodus 37:1-9 - Making The Ark

6 And he made a propitiatory of pure gold, - two cubits and a half, the length thereof, and, a cubit and a half, the breadth thereof: 7 and he made two cherubim, of gold, of beaten work, did he make them, out of the two ends of the propitiatory: 8 one cherub, out of this end, and, one cherub, out of that end, out of the propitiatory itself, made he the cherubim, out of the two ends thereof: 9 and the cherubim were spreading out their wings on high making a shelter with their wings over the propitiatory, with, their faces, one towards the other, towards the propitiatory, were the faces of the cherubim,
