"What does a pillar do? It upholds something doesn’t it. It doesn’t create something or define something. It upholds or supports what is there. It’s the same for a foundation."

Not in biblical symbolism. Throughout Scripture a pillar is used as a symbol of God's presence and law.

Um, NO. It was a cloud for Israel. Then there is the Shekinah but no pillar as such.
