- Ezekiel 41:16–26
Read Ezekiel 41:25 with 41:16–26. By itself, “And there were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubims and palm trees, like as…” can be detached from the speaker, addressee, date, exilic horizon, visionary movement, or outcome that gives it force. The complete unit establishes: Covered windows, paneled walls, alternating cherubim and palms, a wooden altar called the table before the LORD, folding doors, and porch windows shape the sacred interior.
