Exodus 19:9,16, 24:15-16,18, 33:99-10, 34:5, 40:34-38
… the cloud of the LORD was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
The Cloud appeared in the Tabernacle so God could peak with them Leviticus 16:2,13 Numbers 9:15-22 (16 So it was alway: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night).
