10.The dimensions of the ark
17.The mercy seat, with the cherubim
23.The table of show bread, with the furniture thereof

And I will meet with you there
This phrase signifies the divine promise of God's presence. In the context of the Tabernacle, it highlights the sacred space where God would commune with Moses, representing His desire to dwell among His people. This meeting place is a precursor to the New Testament concept of God dwelling with humanity through Jesus Christ (John 1:14).

above the mercy seat
The mercy seat, or "atonement cover," was the lid of the Ark of the Covenant. It was made of pure gold and symbolized God's throne on earth. The mercy seat was central to the Day of Atonement rituals (Leviticus 16), where the high priest would sprinkle blood to atone for the sins of Israel, foreshadowing Christ's ultimate sacrifice (Hebrews 9:11-12).

between the two cherubim
Cherubim are angelic beings often associated with the presence and holiness of God. Their placement on the Ark signifies the heavenly throne room and God's majesty. This imagery is echoed in visions of God's throne inIsaiah 6 andRevelation 4, emphasizing His sovereignty and holiness.

that are over the ark of the Testimony
The Ark of the Testimony contained the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments, representing God's covenant with Israel. It was a physical reminder of God's law and His faithfulness. The Ark's centrality in Israel's worship underscores the importance of obedience and covenant relationship with God.

I will speak with you
God's communication with Moses was direct and personal, highlighting Moses' unique role as a mediator between God and Israel. This anticipates the ultimate mediation of Jesus Christ, who speaks God's word to humanity (Hebrews 1:1-2) and intercedes on our behalf (1 Timothy 2:5).

about all that I command you regarding the Israelites
This phrase underscores the covenantal relationship between God and Israel, where God provides guidance and commandments for His people. It reflects the ongoing revelation and instruction necessary for living in accordance with God's will, a theme that continues throughout Scripture as God guides His people through His word.

What Does Exodus 25:22 Mean
I will meet with you there

• The Lord promises personal, face-to-face fellowship with Moses (Exodus 33:11).

• This intimate meeting place foreshadows Christ, in whom “the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us” (John 1:14).

• Worship is never merely ritual; it is a real encounter with a living God, as later seen when “Moses went into the Tent of Meeting to speak with the Lord, and he heard the voice speaking to him” (Numbers 7:89).

Above the mercy seat

• The mercy seat (kapporet) is the solid gold cover of the ark, where atonement blood was sprinkled on the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:14–15).

• God meets His people on the basis of mercy, not merit—pointing ahead toRomans 3:25, “God presented Him as an atoning sacrifice through faith in His blood.”

• Here judgment and grace converge; justice is satisfied, and fellowship becomes possible (Hebrews 9:11-12).

Between the two cherubim

• Cherubim represent God’s holiness and authority (Genesis 3:24).

• Their outstretched wings form a throne, echoing the refrain, “He is enthroned between the cherubim” (1 Samuel 4:4;Psalm 99:1).

• The scene proclaims that the sovereign Lord rules in holiness even while extending mercy.

Over the ark of the Testimony

• The ark housed the stone tablets, the testimony of God’s covenant (Exodus 25:16;Hebrews 9:4).

• God communicates from above His written word, never apart from it; revelation and Scripture are inseparable.

• The placement underscores the unchanging standard from which He speaks—His commandments remain the benchmark for His people (Matthew 5:17-18).

I will speak with you about all that I command you

• Divine guidance is specific and comprehensive: “all.” Nothing in Israel’s life was outside God’s concern (Deuteronomy 5:32-33).

• The pattern continues in the New Testament, where Jesus says, “teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:20).

• Hearing God obligates obedience; revelation is given for implementation, not mere information (James 1:22-25).

Regarding the Israelites

• God’s words are covenant-focused, shaping a redeemed community (Exodus 19:5-6).

• Leadership receives direction not for private benefit but for the people’s welfare (1 Peter 5:2-3).

• The verse roots every aspect of national life—worship, justice, daily conduct—in God’s revealed will (Psalm 119:105).

summary

Exodus 25:22 presents the meeting place, method, and message of God. He meets personally, above the blood-covered mercy seat, enthroned in holiness between the cherubim. He speaks in harmony with His written covenant, giving comprehensive commands for the good of His people. The verse anticipates Christ’s work, where mercy, revelation, and divine presence find their ultimate fulfillment, inviting believers today to approach with confidence and obey with grateful hearts.

(22)There will I meet with thee.--The place of theShechinah,or visible manifestation of God's presence, was to be between the two cherubim over the mercy seat. There God would meet His people, "to speak there unto them" (Exodus 29:42), either literally, as when He answered inquiries of the high priest by Urim and Thummim, or spiritually, as when He accepted incense, and the blood of offerings, and prayers, offered to Him by the people through their appointed representatives, the priests. It was for the purpose of thus "meeting" His people that the entire tabernacle was designed, and hence its ordinary name was "the Tent of Meeting," unhappily rendered in the Authorised Version by the "tabernacle of the congregation." (See Note onExodus 27:21.)

Verse 22. -And there I will meet with thee. The whole of the foregoing description has been subordinate to this. In all the arrange-meats for the tabernacle God was, primarily and mainly, providing a fit place where he might manifest himself to Moses and his successors. The theocracy was to be a government by God in reality, and not in name only. There was to be constant "communing" between God and the earthly ruler of the nation, and therefore a place of communing. CompareExodus 29:42-45. The special seat of the Divine presence was to be the empty space above the mercy seat, between the two cherubim, and above the ark of the covenant.
