the mercy seat
Numbers 7:89
7:89 the mercy seat. See Exodus 25:22; 33:9,11. The blood of atonement was to be sprinkled upon the mercy seat (Leviticus 16:14,15), where God’s presence was manifested between the two cherubim. Note also Romans 3:25, where “propitiation” (Greek hilasterion), speaking of the atoning blood of Christ, also means “mercy seat.”
