cherubims: Ezekiel 41:16-20

Reciprocal: 1 Kings 7:36 - graved cherubims Ezekiel 40:15 - the face of the gate

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple,.... Both of the holy, and the most holy place:

cherubim and palm trees, like as were made on the walls; the doors of both places had the same decorations as the walls of each;

:-;

:-;

:-; and so it was in Solomon's temple, 1 Kings 6:32, a cherub and a palm tree on each leaf, or on each folding of a leaf, according as it would admit of:

and there were thick planks upon the face of the porch without; on the outward front of the porch were some thick wainscot boards, which projected as a cover to the entrance into it; or, as it may be rendered, also on

the thick piece of wood in the front of the porch without r; which, as Starckius thinks, was a large wooden bar, which shut and held in the folding leaves of the door; and on this, or these thick planks, were cherubim and palm trees.

Ezekiel 41:25

Thick planks - Others render it: leaves in wood (and in Ezekiel 41:26).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Ezekiel 41:25. There were thick planks — The wood, or planks, were thick and strong; for the cherubim and palm trees were carved in relief, out of their substance, and unless they had been of considerable thickness, this could not have been done.
