Exodus 25:20-22
Excerpted from: Deuteronomy (Part 1)The mercy seat represented, symbolically, God's throne—the place where He sits and reigns over all that He has created.
The author of Hebrews here associates the throne of grace with mercy and the inference is obvious. The mercy seat and the throne of grace are one and the same. The mercy seat is that place, symbolically, from which God governs and judges. That is why the ark and its seat were shown in Revelation 11:19. God is shown symbolically sitting on the Ten Commandments. They are the legal basis of His judgments. The place is symbolic then of judgment and mercy being dispensed from the seat of God's government.
