Barnes's 1-kings 6:29 Bible Commentary
Palms, cherubs, and flowers - the main decorations of Solomon's temple - bear considerable resemblance to the ornamentation of the Assyrians, a circumstance which can scarcely be accidental.
Within and without - i. e., both in the inner chamber, or holy of holies, and in the outer one.
Wesley's 1-kings 6:29 Bible Commentary
6:29 Cherubim - As signs of the presence and protection of the angels vouch - safed by God to that place. Palm - trees - Emblems of that peace and victory over their enemies, which the Israelites duly serving God in that place might expect. Within and without - Within the oracle and without it, in the holy place.
