    Where does it mention in the Holy Bible Cherubims that God said to embroider on the curtains in the temple?

    What does it mean when it states, "if therefore thine eye be single," What does "single" mean?

    STU,

    In Matthew 6:22-23, Jesus talks about the eye. He said the light of the body is the eye: and therefore, if your eye is single, the whole body is full of light. But if the eye is evil, the whole body shall be full of darkness. Therefore, if the light that is in you is darkness, how great is the darkness.

    Here's what that means from a Hebrew standpoint:

    First of all, the word "single" has to do with focus, for the good eye is a generous person. The bad eye is a stingy person in the eyes of the Jews. So, if you have a good eye, and you are generous, then your focus is right. If you have a bad or corrupt eye, you are stingy, and your focus is in the wrong place.

    Hope this helps!

    You might be looking for Exodus 26:1?
