Verse 20 is found in chapter 6 of 1 Kings. The temple interior is covered with wood and gold, and the Most Holy Place receives especially elaborate treatment. The cherubim and golden covering emphasize the separation and dignity of the space where divine presence is symbolized. The description does not intend to present God as physically confined to the building; rather, it shows how Israel ritually organizes a space dedicated to the name of the Lord.
