Dear Clay,

Mainstream scholarship understands God's throne to be a winged Sphinx
throne, similar to Late Bronze Age and Iron Age exemplars from Canaan and
Phonecia. The extended, upraised wings constituted the "arms" of the throne.
For further details cf. my article on Cherubim Origins at the following url
