Footnotes
*Kisse kavod* (כִּסֵּא כָבֹוד, 'throne of glory') is a title for YHWH's heavenly seat (cf. 1 Sam. 4:21; Ps. 24:7–10), here directly connected to the earthly *miqdash* (sanctuary/Temple). The Temple is understood as the earthly footstool of the heavenly throne — the place where heaven and earth meet. *Merishon* ('from the first/from antiquity') may echo the cosmic order of creation itself, framing the sanctuary not as a human institution but as built into the fabric of the world. FOG's 'from the first' has a historical, temporal ring; FOG Message's 'from the very beginning' reaches toward the primordial and cosmic.
