heaven. ... A bright light will shine to all the ends of the earth;
many nations will come to you from far away, the inhabitants of the

for all ages. How happy I will be if a remnant of my descendants should
survive to see your glory and acknowledge the King of heaven. The
gates of Jerusalem will be built with sapphire and emerald, and all
your walls with precious stones. The towers of Jerusalem will be
built with gold, and their battlements with pure gold. The streets
of Jerusalem will be paved with ruby and with stones of Ophir.

every jewel; the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third

twelve gates are twelve pearls, each of the gates is a single pearl,
and the street of the city is pure gold, transparent as glass. I
saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the
Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to
shine on it, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the
Lamb. The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the
earth will bring their glory into it. Its gates will never be shut
by day—and there will be no night there. People will bring into it
the glory and the honor of the nations. But nothing unclean will
enter it, nor anyone who practices abomination or falsehood, but
only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

20. 14.4:
and hurry off to Media, for I believe the word of God that Nahum
spoke about Nineveh, that all these things will take place and
overtake Assyria and Nineveh. Indeed, everything that was spoken by
the prophets of Israel, whom God sent, will occur. None of all their
words will fail, but all will come true at their appointed times. So
it will be safer in Media than in Assyria and Babylon. For I know
and believe that whatever God has said will be fulfilled and will
come true; not a single word of the prophecies will fail. All of our
kindred, inhabitants of the land of Israel, will be scattered and
taken as captives from the good land; and the whole land of Israel
will be desolate, even Samaria and Jerusalem will be desolate. And
the temple of God in it will be burned to the ground, and it will be
desolate for a while.
Mt
23.38: See, your house is left to you, desolate.
Lk
13.35: See, your house is left to you. And I tell you, you will not
see me until the time comes when you say, "Blessed is the one who
comes in the name of the Lord.' "

But God will again have mercy on them, and God will bring them back
into the land of Israel; and they will rebuild the temple of God,
but not like the first one until the period when the times of
fulfillment shall come. After this they all will return from their
exile and will rebuild Jerusalem in splendor; and in it the temple
of God will be rebuilt, just as the prophets of Israel have said
concerning it.
Mk
1.15: and saying, "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has
come near; repent, and believe in the good news."

captives among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled on by the
Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

of a woman, born under the law
