Lev 16:2 And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy [place] within the vail before the mercy seat, which [is] upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.

Num 7:89 And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of the congregation to speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto him from off the mercy seat that [was] upon the ark of testimony, from between the two cherubims: and he spake unto him.
So was it Marys voice he heard? Is it Mary that gives mercy?
1 Timothy 3:15 God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.
So is Mary the pillar of the church?
In some sense God was in the cloud above the Ark. God was not the mercy seat or Ark.
Num 7:89 And when Moses was gone into the tabernacle of the congregation to speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto him from off the mercy seat that [was] upon the ark of testimony, from between the two cherubims: and he spake unto him.
See above.
So was it Marys voice he heard? Is it Mary that gives mercy?
Was it the Ark's voice he heard? Did the mercy seat speak? Or did God (in the cloud) speak?
1 Timothy 3:15 God's household, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth.
So is Mary the pillar of the church?
As God led the Israelites by a pillar of smoke and a column of fire by night, so does Christ's Church (the Body of Christ), the "pillar and foundation of truth" lead Christians.
