carved (figure), carving, graving
Concise Bible Dictionary:
This was much used in the Temple. “He carved all the walls of the house round about with carved figures of cherubim, and palm-trees, and open flowers.” They were then overlaid with gold (1 Kings 6:18, 29-35). The Psalmist prophetically laments its being broken down by the enemy with axes and hammers (Psa. 74:6). For the “carved images” of idolatry (Judg. 18:18; 2 Chron. 33:7,22; 2 Chron. 34:3-4), another word is used, which is elsewhere translated “graven image.”
