The length, width and height of the city are the same - like the pyramid. The wall measures \"one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, which the angel has\". ... \"The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.\" ... \"The foundations of the wall were adorned with precious stones.\" ... \"The twelve gates were twelve pearls.\" ... \"I saw no temple in the city, for the Lord God Almighty is its temple and the Lamb.\" - This states that the outer place is replaced by the spiritual temple. \"The city has no need of the sun or the moon.\" These old lights are replaced. \"The lamp is the Lamb.\" All the old symbols have merged into the Lamb, who brought the actual Gospel.
