The City Of Pure Gold

The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates & its walls. The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod & found it to be 12,000 stadiaa in length, & as wide & high as it is long. He measured its wall & it was 144 cubitsb thick, by man’s measurement, which the angel was using. The wall was made of jasper, & THE CITY OF PURE GOLD, as pure as glass. The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, & the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of pure gold, like transparent glass.
Revelation 21:15-21
