2 Chronicles 5:7-9 ▼

7 Then the priests brought the ark of the covenant of the LORD to its place, to the inner sanctuary of the house, into the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubim;

8 for the cherubim spread out their wings over the place of the ark, making a covering above the ark and its carrying poles.

9 The poles were so long that the ends of the poles of the ark were visible from the front of the Holy of Holies (inner sanctuary), but were not visible from the outside. They are there to this day.
