- Exodus 25:18
Make two cherubim of hammered gold at the ends of the mercy seat,
Commentary on Exodus 25:182 voices
1 Cor. xi, 10, and their desire to look into the mysteries of the gospel, which they diligently contemplate, 1 Pet. i, 12. God is said to dwell or sit between the cherubim, on the mercy-seat, Psalm lxxx, 1, and from thence he here promiseth for the future to meet with Moses, and to commune with him.
John Wesley· Explanatory Notes upon the Old Testament, 1765Evangelical
We are told too that "the words of the Lord are pure words, as silver tried in the fire"; again, in another place "the tongue of the just" is said to be "as silver tried by fire." And the cherubim are described as golden, because they are by interpretation the plentitude of knowledge. And it is commanded also that a candlestick of solid gold should be put in the tabernacle of the testimony; and that, it seems to us, is a type of the natural law in which the light of knowledge is contained.
