SEV Biblia, Chapter 36:8
¶ Y todos los sabios de corazón entre los que hacían la obra, hicieron el tabernáculo de diez cortinas, de lino torcido, y de cárdeno, y de púrpura y carmesí; las cuales hicieron de obra primorosa, con querubines.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 36:8
Verse 8. Cherubims of cunning work] See on chap. xxv. 18. Probably the word means no more than figures of any kind wrought in the diaper fashion in the loom, or by the needle in embroidery, or by the chisel or graving tool in wood, stone, or metal; see on "chap. xxv. 18". This meaning Houbigant and other excellent critics contend for. In some places the word seems to be restricted to express a particular figure then well known; but in many other places it seems to imply any kind of figure commonly formed by sculpture on stone, by carving on wood, by engraving upon brass, and by weaving in the loom, &c.
Matthew Henry Commentary

Thus should we serve God, and our superiors also, in all things lawful. Thus should all who are in public trusts abhor filth lucre, and avoid all occasions and temptations to covetousness. Wher have we the representation of God's love towards us, that we by love dwell in him and he in us, save in Emmanuel? Mt 1:23. This is the su of the ministry of reconciliation, 2Co 5:18, 19. This was the design of the "tabernacle of witness," a visible testimony of the love of God to the race of men, however they were fallen from their first state. An this love was shown by Christ's taking up his abode on earth; by the Word being made flesh, Joh 1:14, wherein, as the original expresses it he did tabernacle among us __________________________________________________________________
