Revelation's pure zenith

This heavenly city, lighted by the Sun of Righteous- ness, - this New Jerusalem, this infinite All, which to us seems hidden in the mist of remoteness, - reached St. John's vision while yet he taber- nacled with mortals.

In Revelation xxi. 22, further describing this holy city, the beloved Disciple writes: -

And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
