10: And they shall make an ark of shittim wood: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, a cubit and a half the breadth thereof, and a cubit and a half the height thereof.
12: And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.

19:And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end.
20: And the twin cherubims shall stretch forth their wings, covering the mercy seat with their wings, their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be:
The sacred geometry of the twin cherubims comprises of:
2 nodes, each have 62 sticks that form 3 concentric spheres:
icosa-dodecahedron (30) + icosahedron (12) + dodecahedron (20);
their combined energy killing the old and creating new live!
22: And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark (or arc?) of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.
Cherubim in the Hebrew Bible
Descriptions vary, but in general all describe cherubim as winged creatures combining human and animal features.
In the book of Genesis cherubim are described as guarding the way to the Tree of Life, east of the Garden of Eden armed with flaming swords (Genesis 3:24): "So he drove out the man, and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life."
According to Exodus 26:1, cherubim were embroidered on the curtains of the tabernacle. In Solomon’s Temple, two olive wood sculptures of cherubim plated with gold, ten cubits high, stood wingtip-towingtip, guarding the Ark of the Covenant.
In the tabernacle, two smaller cherubim sculpted from solid gold are described as standing on the cover of the Ark facing each other (Ex 25:18).
The Ark of the Covenant stood in the Holy of Holies, where the shekhinah of God was said to reside.
For this reason God is referred to in the Tanakh as "God who dwells between the cherubim".
The Cherubim in Solomon’s Temple are described in 1 Kings 6:23-29 and 2 Chronicles 3:10-13.
The Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church claims to possess the Ark of the Covenant in Axum. The Ark is kept under guard in a treasury near the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion.
