After Adam and Eve had eaten the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, God drove them from the Garden of Eden and placed cherubs on the path so that they could not return and eat the fruit of the Tree of Life, thus becoming both god-like and immortal.
Dr David Goldstein (Jewish Mythology) says that cherubs were sphinx-like creatures with human heads, the bodies of lions, and wings. He says the great guardians of the Assyrian Ninevah were probably quite like the Israelite cherubs in form. In fact, the cherub form was common throughout much of the ancient Near East.
