Cloud:
The shelter given, and refreshment of rain promised, by clouds give them their peculiar prominence in Oriental imagery. When a cloud appears rain is ordinarily apprehended, and thus the "cloud without rain" becomes a proverb for the man of promise without performance (Proverbs 16:15; Isaiah 18:4; 25:5; Jude 1:12 compare Proverbs 25:14). The cloud is a figure of transitoriness (Job 30:15; Hosea 6:4) and of whatever intercepts divine favor or human supplication (Lamentations 2:1; 3:44). A bright cloud at times visited and rested on the mercy‐seat (Exodus 29:42, 43; 1 Kings 8:10-11; 2 Chronicles 5:14; Ezekiel 43:4) and was by later writers named Shechinah.
