I am just curious. How do we understand Exodus25:18-20 in light of Exodus 20:4? This is a question that has been on my mind for some time. I know one or two of you all should know how to answer this.
The passages are the command to make the images of Cherub on the mercy seat and the commandment to not make any graven images on the earth or in heaven.
I feel pressed to ask this in light of another thread about images used in worship. I know the seat was not worshipped nor was it an aid to worship. Was it?
I would be scared to use them as an aid to worship.
