Moses was given a pattern of the heavenly Sanctuary/Tabernacle that embodies and represents God's plan of salvation in symbols and types. (Ex 25:8-9; Heb 8:5)
1Viewed from above the east gate entrance, the Sanctuary furnishings (including the courtyard) are arranged in the shape of a cross.2The Ark of the Covenant contains God's law, the 10 commandments, protected by 2 'covering angels' (Lucifer; Eze 28:14). The mercy seat on the Ark is God's throne in heaven (Ex 25:17-22).

The Symbols of Kingdoms and Religious Powers in Bible Prophecy
The 'pure woman', the 'scarlet woman', the 'talking horn', the 'little horn' (when growing vertically), the 'sea beast' with '10' horns, and the two types of 'clays' are religious in nature.1 The King of the North = apostate Christians (those who renounce God's law) and 'Christian' nations. An imposter of the true King of the North (Is 14:13).
