New Earth/Jerusalem

Hi All

SM that was [ahem]... interesting.

The New Jerusalem has interesting numerological significance too. It's 12,000 stadia on edge and cubic. A stadium was a an old Roman furlong specifically 660 feet. Hence the New Jerusalem was 7,920,000 feet on edge - using 1000 "feet" per "mile" that's the diameter of the Earth. Hence the New Jerusalem en-cubes the Earth, so in actuality the Earth becomes the "City of God", which is an Old Testament theme of long-standing.

Revelation is irrelevant to us now regardless, since a close analysis shows it actually dscribes the Jewish War of 66-70 CE.
