Revelation 21:17
"The city is square. Its length is as great as its width. He measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand twelve stadia. Its length, width, and height are equal."
Key Reflection
This description of the New Jerusalem as a perfect cube symbolizes divine perfection and eternal harmony. The equal dimensions—length, width, and height—all set at twelve thousand stadia (a unit of distance)—emphasize the city's vastness and its role as a sanctuary for all believers in an age without end.
