1 Kings 8:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ Then the priests put the Ark of the Covenant with the Lord in its right place. This was inside the Most Holy Place in the Temple. The Ark of the Covenant was put under the wings of the golden creatures. ⁷ The wings of the creatures were spread out over the place of the Ark of the Covenant. So they covered it and its carrying poles. ⁸ The carrying poles were very long. Anyone standing in the Holy Place in front of the Most Holy Place could see the ends of the poles. But no one could see them from outside the Holy Place. The poles are still there today.
