I guess I'll have to read more about this, since you have my curiousity going. Something I don't understand at all, to be sure, and maybe one of those things I'll not understand easily...

Amen! Yes Marsha, the scriptures refer to the furnishings of the tabernacle. Everything that was placed in the tabernacle has a meaning, a deep study, but very beautiful, but one needs to have a great understanding about the building and furnishing of the tabernacle.
Love you with God's Love....

An intersting commentary on the Mercy Seat:
Since the priests have been warned by the death of Nadab and Abihu to approach God with reverence and godly fear, directions are here given how the nearest approach might be made ... Within the veil none must ever come but the high priest only, and he but one day in the year. But see what a blessed change is made by the Gospel of Christ; all good Christians now have boldness to enter into the Holy of Holies, through the veil, every day (Heb. 10:19, 20); and we come boldly (not as Aaron must, with fear and trembling) to the throne of grace, or mercy seat (Heb. 4:16)... Now therefore we are welcome to come at all times into the Holy Place "not made with hands." In the past Aaron could not come near "at all times," lest he die; we now must come near "at all times," that we may live. It is [keeping our] distance only that is our death (Matthew Henry, A Commentary).
This is from The Amplified Bible and refers to Leviticus 16:2
I just never heard it refered to that way before...
In Christ,
Mel
