Jerusalem - Revelation 21




Revelation 21 talks about the new Jerusalem and how it will look like one day.

John saw the new set-apart city Jerusalem come down all prepared as a bride - Revelation 21:2.

Verse 3 is the amazing part: “See, the Booth (Tabernacle) of Elohim is with men, and He shall dwell with them,and they shall be His people, and Elohim Himself shall be with them and be their Elohim.


 











This is also written in Leviticus 26:12 And I shall walk in your midst, and shall be your Elohim, and you shall be My people. Written in many other places.

Verse 4, one of the prophets (Isaiah) spoke about the pain and suffering that will be taken away.

Again, John sees the new Jerusalem and its beauty with the 12 tribes, 12 gates and 12 stones (verse 10 to 21; And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the set-apart Jerusalem, descending out of the heaven from Elohim, having the esteem of Elohim, and her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal, and having a great and high wall, having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve messengers, and names written on them, which are those of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve emissaries of the Lamb. And he who spoke with me had a golden measuring rod, to measure the city, and its gates, and its wall. And the city lies four-cornered, and its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the rod: two thousand two hundred kilometres – the length, and the breadth, and height of it are equal. And he measured its wall: sixty-five metres, according to the measure of a man, that is, of a messenger. And the structure of its wall was jasper. And the city was clean gold, like clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls – each one of the gates was a single pearl. And the street of the city was clean gold, like transparent glass.


 









Verse 22, there is no temple in the new Jerusalem. Why, because it will be the same as it was in the beginning when Elohim walked with His people - Yahuah is its temple, and the Lamb.

Verse 27 says only the clean and those whose name is written in the Lamb's Book of life (also in Daniel 12.1) will be allowed into this new Jerusalem - only the true 12 tribes of Israel together with those who joined with Israel.

The false ones will not enter - verse 8 “But as for the cowardly, and untrustworthy, and abominable, and murderers, and those who whore, and drug sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the false, their part is in the lake which burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death” and verse 27 And there shall by no means enter into it whatever is unclean, neither anyone doing abomination and falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. Plus, Revelation 2:9 “I know your works, and pressure, and poverty – yet you are rich – and the blasphemy of those who say they are Yehudim and are not, but are a congregation of Satan.


 






This is the Jerusalem I'm waiting for; trust you are too!

“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies (community).
