  ב"ה b"H inyan: really the G-dly miracle
  

  
  b"H
  
  This is really the G-dly miracle, of course, and it is paralleled in the beginning words of the Birkos HaShema:
  
  "yotzer Or uvoreh Choshekh, ossay Shalom uvoreh et HaKol",  for as both parts of what are being made one in the cover - the one from the Holy of Holies and the one from the Holy are covered with Cherubim woven into them, symbolizing that all degrees of holiness in the Heavenly spheres come together in G-d's service (Sforno), the Artscroll Stone edition in note 6 on page 455 goes on to say that "the concept that the Tabernacle shall become one is an indication that all elements of Creation - Heavenly and human alike - should work together for a common goal".  HaShem, as stressed in the words above from the Birkos HaShema, is the G-d of Or and of Choshekh, all shades of good and evil and all creatures and creation involved. The Mishkan was a mini-version that contained this whole that our eyes, ears and all our senses can never encompass.
