You shall make a mercy seat of pure gold. Two cubits and a half shall be its length, and a cubit and a half its breadth.
#exodus 25:17
The "mercy seat" is the focus of the Tabernacle. It's Hebrew name, kaporet, is from the same root as the pitch on Noah's ark. It means "atonement" or "covering". Although it is literally the covering of the Ark, it is also an allusion to the spiritual covering of the Son which allows us to enter the presence of the Father, hence it is called the seat of mercy. "Seat" in this context refers to the focus of a thing, not a place to sit, like a county seat is the capital city, the focus, of a county.
#yeshua is our covering, sheltering us, hiding our uncleanness from the eyes of the Father, enabling our forgiveness and our approach to his throne, and he is the focus ("end") of Torah.

The carrying poles for the Ark of the Covenant were mounted on the narrow ends of the Ark, not long sides, and may have protruded through the inner curtain of the Tabernacle like God's presence into our world. We can't see him face-to-face, but we can see the Son, and like the Cherubim, they are two witnesses or guards that lead to the presence of the Father.
The poles were removable, but God said never to remove them. Even with something so simple, he usually leaves us a way to disobey him if we choose to.

Thought for Today: Friday February 28
YHVH is the Moshiach in you, the hope of glory. The One Who walks besides you, holding your hand, is the same One Who lives within you. This is a deep unfathomable mystery. YHVH and you are intertwined in an intimacy involving every fibre of your being. The Light of His Presence shines within you, as well as upon you. YHVH is in you and you are in Him; therefore, nothing in heaven or on earth can separate you from Him. As you sit quietly in His Presence, your awareness of YHVH’s life within you, is heightened. This produces the “joy of YHVH, which is your strength”. He is the YHVH of hope, Who fill you with joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of Ruach HaKodesh.
