"Les Cherubins / Keruvim dans l'Antiquite" explores the rich tradition of the angelic class of Cherubs (keruvim) and related winged divine figures in the Ancient World. Twelve articles are devoted to their conceptions, roles, and iconographies in the Hebrew Bible, in the Ancient Near East, in Ancient Egypt, in the Eastern Mediterranean World, in Ancient Jewish and Early Christian texts and works of art. Among others, Ph. Abrahami reconsiders the Mesopotamian "kur?bu", A. Caubet presents an overview of winged divine figures in Eastern Mediterranean art, D. Hamidovi? explores Cherubs in Jewish Merkavah literature and S. Bethmont the iconography of Cherubs in the context of the Ark of the Covenant.
