The New Jerusalem, the Bride of the Lamb

One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came & said to me,
“Come, I will show you the Bride, the Wife of the Lamb.”
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great & high, & showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It Shone with the Glory of God, & its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, & with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south & three on the west. The wall of the city had twelve foundations, & on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Revelation 21:9-14
