Double meaning.
- City build on 7 hills is Jerusalem: Mount of Olives, with three summits, Scopus, Nob, Mount of Corruption or Mount of Offence; Mount Zion, Ophel Mount, the Rock around which Fort Antonia was built. And finally, there was the southwest hill itself that finally became known in the time of Simon the Hasmonean as the new “Mount Zion”
I don’t know. I got the Josephus quote out of the book “Rapture” by David Currie.Ryan
THANKS!!!
Where in Josephus? It is a big, big, big book.
THANKS!!!
Again, while you want to point that Jerusalem is the whore, ultimately, it will be restored by Yeshua before the New Jerusalem. He will reign there for a 1000 years.Biblical suggestions that Whore is Jerusalem
Non-biblical but biblical suggestion (not biblical because only six are mentioned in Bible)
- Jerusalem the Whore
- Jerusalem is Drunk
- Jerusalem is Drunken Whore
- Jerusalem is Great City
- Jews are known for Gold
- Jews are known for Purple
- Jews are known for Scarlet
- Jews are known for Silver
- Jerusalem is called Sodom
- Jerusalem is city that Crucified Our Lord
- Christ will be seen by those who Pierced Him
- Only Jerusalem kills Prophets
- Jerusalem as a mountain being Thrown into sea
- Babylon destroyed the copy of the Temple, and Mystery Babylon the Great destroyed the Real Temple, Jesus Chrst.
- Old Covenant passes out of existence, New Covenant takes its place
- Old Jerusalem passes out of existence, New Jerusalem takes its place
- Jesus is coming Quickly, said in several ways and said many times
18.

If I posted this before, I am sorry!
I certainly believe in the restoration of Israel, but I don’t know how you get Yeshua reigning in Jerusalem for a 1000 years by reading the Book of Revelation.Again, while you want to point that Jerusalem is the whore, ultimately, it will be restored by Yeshua before the New Jerusalem. He will reign there for a 1000 years.
Jerusalem, like Israel, will be restored by Yeshua before this heaven and Earth pass for the new.
What other city would Revelation be referring to? Seamus Sully just listed Jerusalems attributes, some by reading Revelation. And if there is a New Jerusalem described in Revelation, the old must of been described prior to it.I certainly believe in the restoration of Israel, but I don’t know how you get Yeshua reigning in Jerusalem for a 1000 years by reading the Book of Revelation.

At least your nose is in the scriptures brother!I have been perplexed by the symbolisms in the Holy Bible.
This perplexion is greatly increased IN the Book of Revelation.
I have struggled praying and in my studies concerning these symbols.
It seems to me the greatest literal statement is: REPENT!
Repent and these things will not happen.
How could we forget Jonah and his success. No! God’s power to cause repentance.
REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT.
At the end of the Book of Revelation, it seems as if the seven churches must have repented, they received promises–that is, the Bride received the promises.
Also, I believe the Song of Songs’ bride is connected to the Book of Revelation–how I do not know.
Is 1000 years a symbol?
If it is, the symbol of the 1000 years is beyond me.
The woman, the snake are symbols.
The 1000 years could be joined or connected to: “A day with the Lord is as a 1000 years, and a thousand years is as a day.”
I have pondered if John was with the Lord on the Lord’s day (one day), seems as if John were with the Lord 1000 years, that is,1000 blessed earth years.
If one is there a thousand years, it is as if it were only a day.
Perhaps a few questions is much better–How does one discern if St. John is using a symbol?
Is the destruction of Jerusalem in the past–in the year of 70?
Did the Old Law become complete (pass away) in 33?
Did the physical Jerusalem pass away in 70?
The CCC teaches that the Holy Bible does use symbols.
Then the symbols must be moved to the literal meaning.
But I do not know how to do that for many, many things in the Book of Revelation.
I therefore try to join the statements in the Book of Revelation to other passages that might explain the symbolism.
I AM NOT A SCHOLAR.
THEREFORE I AM TOTALLY UNCERTAIN ABOUT MY INTERTEXTUALITIES OR “INTRA-EGESIS”.
My prayer tells me to make it practical: REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT, REPENT!
Old Jerusalem was destroyed within a generation of Jesus death and resurrection. 1000 years refers to the heavenly reign. (1000 years is symbolic of a very long time) Jesus will return in glory after Rev 20:7What other city would Revelation be referring to? Seamus Sully just listed Jerusalems attributes, some by reading Revelation. And if there is a New Jerusalem described in Revelation, the old must of been described prior to it.
Plus the fact that other Kingdom scripture in the OT name Jerusalem.
