23 - And the city [the New Jerusalem] doesn’t need the sun or the moon, for the glory of God is its radiance, and the lamp of it is the Lamb. 24 And by its light the nations will walk, and the kings of earth will bring their glory into it, 25 and its gates will not be shut by day—there will be no night there. 26 They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27 And never shall anything unclean enter into it, nor what is detestable or false, but only those written in the Lamb's book of life.

     22:1 - Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, clear as crystal flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 And through the middle of the street of the city, and on either side of the river, is the tree of life bearing twelve kinds of fruit, each for its month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing [therapeia] of the nations.

📜🗞️ The revelation vision is told 3 times: 6:1-2 to 11:19; chap.12 w/ Mt.23:39; and 13:1 to 19:11, the three meeting at the 7th trumpet’s sounding.

Jesus’ brief first advent perfectly fulfilled the ancient Spring Holy Days, more perfectly than is easily seen. So logically his long second advent will fulfill the Autumn Holy Days, their names and pattern:

  TRUMPETS (of Rev, return at 7th during the concurrent bowls) - 10days/1000yrs - to ‘DAY’ oF ATONEMENT - 5days/500yrs - to TABERNACLES — a fiery regenesis, “All new.. God will now tabernacle with mankind” Rev.21:1-5.
