Metaphysical meaning of cloud (mbd)
cloud, the, that filled the whole place (I Kings 8:10, 11).
Meta. The presence of the mind of God in spiritual visibility, which comes to us when we have dropped all formal religious exercises and are resting in the very consciousness of Deity. This brightness of understanding is so great that the priests cannot stand to minister because of it--there is no place for formal religious ceremony or thought exercise.
