Exodus 37 — Context

These rods he put in the rings at the sides of the ark, for lifting it.

And he made the cover all of gold, two and a half cubits long and a cubit and a half wide.

And he made two winged ones, hammered out of one bit of gold, for the two ends of the cover;

Placing one at one end and one at the other; the winged ones were part of the cover.

And their wings were stretched out over the cover; the faces of the winged ones were opposite one another and facing the cover.

And he made the table of hard wood, two cubits long, a cubit wide and a cubit and a half high;

Plating it with the best gold and putting a gold edge all round it.
