Where the connections lead

Follow this verse’s cross-references two steps out. Each card is a verse this one points to, and beneath it the verses that one points to in turn. Where several different paths arrive at the same place, that place is listed first: the text keeps returning to it. Every stop shows its own words, and every stop is a page.

The gold bar shows how strongly the cross-reference sources tie the two verses together: a long bar means many compiled references make the connection, a short one means few.

1 Kings 6:27And he placed the cherubim inside the innermost room of the temple. Since their wings were spread out, the wing of the first cherub touched one wall, while the wing of the second cherub touched the other wall, and in the middle of the room their wingtips touched.Exodus 37:3–5And he cast four gold rings for its four feet, two rings on one side and two on the other.Exodus 25:12–15Cast four gold rings for it and fasten them to its four feet, two rings on one side and two on the other.Numbers 4:6They are to place over this a covering of fine leather, spread a solid blue cloth over it, and insert its poles.
