Replica of the ark of the covenant, with the "mercy seat" (kaporet) acting as lid.
According to the Hebrew Bible, the kaporet (Hebrew: כַּפֹּרֶתkapōreṯ) or mercy seat was the gold lid placed on the Ark of the Covenant, with two cherubim at the ends to cover and create the space in which Yahweh appeared and dwelled. This was connected with the rituals of the Day of Atonement. The term also appears in later Jewish sources, and twice in the New Testament, from where it has significance in Christian theology.
