The inside of the Tabernacle was divided into two main parts: The Holy Place and the Most Holy. A veil was hung between them as a divider, and the Ark of the Testimony was located behind this veil inside the Most Holy. The covering of the Ark is also known as the mercy seat.
In the Bible, a cubit is the length stretching from the tip of the finger to the elbow. So, a cubit in the Old Testament is generally considered to be about 500 mm in today’s unit of measurement. Then, at two and half cubits, the length of the mercy was about 1.0m in today’s measurement; its width and length, at a cubit and a half each, were around 750 mm. Below this mercy seat was the Ark of the Testimony, and the Ark was also made of acacia wood and overlaid with pure gold. At both ends of the mercy seat, there were two cherubim stretching out their wings above, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces were toward the mercy seat facing each other. The mercy seat, as its name goes, is where God bestowed His grace.
