Cherubim

Cherubim
Cherubim Cher"u*bim, n. The Hebrew plural of {Cherub}.. Cf. {Seraphim}. [1913 Webster]

Note: Cherubims, in the King James version of the bible, is an incorrect form, made by adding the English plural termination to the Hebrew plural cherubim instead of to the singular cherub. [1913 Webster]
