“Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;”
Having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron's rod that sprouted, and the tablets of the covenant — the holy of holies contained the physical memorials of God's covenant dealings: incense (for prayers), the ark (the covenant box), hidden manna (divine sustenance), Aaron's staff (vindication of the priesthood), and stone tablets (the law itself). Each object represents a dimension of God's relationship with Israel.
