Each cherub stood 15 feet high.

The second cherub also had a wingspan of 15 feet; it was identical to the first in measurements and shape.

He put the cherubs in the inner sanctuary of the temple. Their wings were spread out. One of the first cherub’s wings touched one wall and one of the other cherub’s wings touched the opposite wall. The first cherub’s other wing touched the second cherub’s other wing in the middle of the room.

In the four hundred and eightieth year after the Israelites left Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon’s reign over Israel, during the month Ziv (the second month), he began building the Lord’s temple.

He fashioned two bronze pillars; each pillar was 27 feet high and 18 feet in circumference.
