Explanation of 2 Kings 15:9
Napsal(a) Henry MacLagan
Verse 9. And therefore more and more into a state of opposition to Divine Truth from Divine Good, as had been the case with preceding corrupt churches; nor does its state of intellectual pride, combined with external worship, separate from internal, cease.
Exodus 25:17-22
17
You shall make a mercy seat of pure gold. Two and a half cubits shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.
18
You shall make two cherubim of hammered gold. You shall make them at the two ends of the mercy seat.
19
Make one cherub at the one end, and one cherub at the other end. You shall make the cherubim on its two ends of one piece with the mercy seat.
20
The cherubim shall spread out their wings upward, covering the mercy seat with their wings, with their faces toward one another. The faces of the cherubim shall be toward the mercy seat.
21
You shall put the mercy seat on top of the ark, and in the ark you shall put the testimony that I will give you.
22
There I will meet with you, and I will tell you from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are on the ark of the testimony, all that I command you for the children of Israel.
