PILLAR OF, the miraculous token of the divine presence and care, Exodus 14:24 16:10 Numbers 12:5 , which guided the Israelites in the desert; it was a means of protection and perhaps of shade by day, and gave them light by night, Exodus 13:21,22 14:19,20 . By it God directed their movements, Numbers 9:15-23 14:14 Deuteronomy 1:33 . See the beautiful application of the image to the future church in Isaiah 4:5 .
