27 Then he put the cherubim inside the inner temple. Since their wings were spread out, the first one’s wing touched one wall while the second cherub’s wing touched the other wall, and in the middle of the temple their wings were touching wing to wing.
28 He also overlaid the cherubim with gold.
29 He carved all the surrounding temple walls with carved engravings — cherubim, palm trees and flower blossoms — in both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
30 He overlaid the temple floor with gold in both the inner and outer sanctuaries.
31 For the entrance of the inner sanctuary, he made olive wood doors. The pillars of the doorposts were five-sided.
32 The two doors were made of olive wood. He carved cherubim, palm trees, and flower blossoms on them and overlaid them with gold, hammering gold over the cherubim and palm trees.
33 In the same way, he made four-sided olive wood doorposts for the sanctuary entrance.
