Revelation 21:9–27 reveals New Jerusalem as both the bride, the Lamb’s wife, and a radiant holy city descending from God. Its gates, foundations, precious stones, measured perfection, absence of a temple, divine light, and open gates gather imagery from Israel, Eden, temple, and prophetic restoration promises. God and the Lamb are its temple and glory, while nothing defiling enters it.
