H6816 H6816
formed objects, images, sculptural work (particularly of cherubim)
This plural noun appears only in 2 Chronicles describing the cherubim in Solomon's temple. The term refers to carved or sculpted figures—literally 'things formed' or 'image-work.' The Spanish and English translations capture the sculptural nature, while some versions simply transliterate the Hebrew, perhaps uncertain of the exact type of artistic work. These were not mere decorative elements but sacred images representing angelic beings in the Most Holy Place.
Senses
1. sense 1 — Refers to sculptured or carved figures, specifically describing the artistic technique used to create the cherubim in Solomon's temple (2 Chr 3:10). The phrase 'image work' suggests three-dimensional carved representations rather than flat reliefs or paintings. 1×
