Footnotes
קֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים (*Kodesh HaKodashim*) is the Hebrew superlative: not merely holy, but holiness raised to its own highest power — the innermost chamber where the divine Presence dwells. The perfect square (twenty by twenty cubits) deliberately mirrors Solomon's Holy of Holies (1 Kgs 6:20) and anticipates the cubic New Jerusalem (Rev 21:16), where the entire city becomes a Holy of Holies. Heaven descends to earth as a measured room. FOG preserves the Hebrew superlative; FOG Message uses the familiar English 'Most Holy Place.'
