2 Chronicles 3:14

12 The wing of the second cherub also measured five cubits and touched the wall of the temple, while its other wing measured five cubits and touched the wing of the first cherub.

13 So the total wingspan of these cherubim was twenty cubits. They stood on their feet, facing the main room.

He made the veil of blue, purple, and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim woven into it.

15 In front of the temple he made two pillars, which together were thirty-five cubits high, each with a capital on top measuring five cubits.

16 He made interwoven chains and put them on top of the pillars. He made a hundred pomegranates and fastened them into the chainwork.
