“And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city of Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,”

Revelation 21:10

Save as image

Study note

Revelation 21 follows the judgment of the old order and the vision of a new heaven and a new earth. One of the seven angels who held the bowls now comes to show John the bride, the wife of the Lamb, in a scene that parallels his earlier view of Babylon.
