And the other cherub [was] ten cubits,…. That is, its wings stretched out measured so many cubits, as did those of the other:
both the cherubim [were] of one measure, and of one size; of the same height and stature, of the same breadth of their wings, and of the same bulk of their bodies; they were of “image work”; 2Ch 3:10; very probably in the form of men: and this uniformity may denote the perfect agreement of angels; or else the consent of the true faithful witnesses of Christ in all ages, who have all agreed in the person, office, and grace of Christ, as represented by the mercy seat and ark, which these cherubim covered with their wings.

1Ki 6:25 And the other cherub [was] ten cubits: both the cherubims [were] of one measure and one size.
Ver. 25. Of one measure, and of one size. ] And all according to the pattern given by God to David. Here then is no plea for Popish imagery, or idolatry against the second commandment, unless they can produce a special warrant from the lawmaker, who can, when he pleaseth, dispense with his own law.
