Cherubim: From Hebrew Cherub; In the N.T., Golden figures representing the Cherubim, are placed over the ark of the covenant, Hebrews 9:5. Compare with, Exodus 25:18, with Hebrews 9:5. The Cherubim in theology, are creatures of a celestial nature. Their form is composed from and described as being in the figure of a man, eagle, ox, and lion. These four creatures are represented as emblems of both wisdom and strength.
Compare with, Ezekiel 1:10. They are first mentioned as guarding the entrance to the garden of Eden, Genesis 3:24. Then as bearing the throne of God upon their wings, they moving swiftly through the clouds, 2 Samuel 22:11, “And he rode upon a cherub,” Psalms 18:12, Ezekiel 1. Golden figures of Cherubim were placed on, or over the ark, so as to cover it, Exodus 25:18. Because the Ark was the seat of God’s visible presence, He = (God) is therefore said to dwell between the Cherubim, 1 Samuel 4:4, 2 Samuel 6:2, Psalms 80:2, 99:1. When the temple in Jerusalem was built, other like images were placed over the ark and around the Holy of Holies, 1 Kings 6:23, 8:6.

Our Lord is compared in N.T. to a foundation corner-stone, in two different points of view. First, as the stone lies at the foundation and gives support and strength to the building, so Christ, or the doctrine of a Saviour, is called, Ephesians 2:20, “Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone.”
This doctrine is the most important feature of the Christian religion and is the foundation of all the precepts given by the apostles and other Christian teachers. Further, as the corner-stone occupies an important and honorable place, Jesus is compared to it, 1 Peter 2:6, because the Father has made Him distinguished, advancing Him to a dignity and conspicuousness above all others.
Chief: 749. A high priest, chief priest, pontifex maximus. Septuagint for Hebrew, “Priest,” Leviticus 4:3; more usually, “high priest,” Leviticus 21:10. Numbers 35:25. In N.T.
a. The high priest of the Jews, Matthew 26:3-62-63-65. Mark 2:26. Luke 22:50. By the original divine appointment he was to be of the family of Aaron, Exodus 29:9, “Aaron and his sons, — the priest’s office shall be theirs.” In the time of the Romans the office had become venal and given even to foreign Jews; See, 2 Macc. 4:7. Jos. Ant.15:3.1. It was also no longer for life; so that there were often several persons living at one time who had borne the office, and still retained the title of high priests.
There appears also to have been a vicar or substitute for the high priest, to perform his duties on certain occasions. Such a substitute is not expressly mentioned in the Scriptures, though such a person seems to be implied in 2 Kings 25:18, “Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest.” Jeremiah 52:24. In one of these senses Annas is called high priest, Luke 3:2, “Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests.” John 18:13. Acts 4:6.
b. A chief priest, as spoken of those who were at the head of the twenty-four classes of priests mentioned,1 Chronicles 24, and who are there called kings and priests, verse 6. Matthew 2:4, 26:3. Mark 14:1. Luke 22:2. These were members of the Sanhedrim, and indeed the expressions Matthew 2:4, “Gathered all the chief priests.” John 7:32-45, seem to be put by way of circumlocution for the Sanhedrim; and in some instances, the word, “Chief-priests,” appears to be used by itself in a general sense to denote the same council; as John 12:10, collectively with verses 11:47.
c. In Hebrews 2:17, 3:1, 4:14, 5:5, 6:20, Christ is called, “High Priest,” and compared with the high priest of the Jews, as having offered up Himself a sacrifice for sin; compare with, Hebrews 9:7-11-12.
