Is the "1000 year reign" allegorical then? Immediately with the coming of the NEW JERUSALEM?Most likely they would follow the Mosaic Law, the dimensions would be along the line of Solomon's Temple, like the second Temple did. It's just too big to be of human creation.
By faith he (Abraham) dwelt in the promised land as a stranger in a foreign country. He lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. (Heb. 11:9-10)After the thousand years are ended the this city is surrounded:
And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison...And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. (Rev. 21:7,9)God brings a new city from heaven after this, this one doesn't have a Temple because God is with them. In the wilderness God was in the Tabernacle, latter the Temple. Ezekiel describes the ark of God and the glory of God leaving the Temple. In the first century it was in the person and work of Christ. In the Millennial kingdom it will be in the third Temple. In the eternal state, God will be with us and there will be no need for a Temple.
Grace and peace,
Mark
There's got to be a period of time between the 1000 year reign and the NEW JERUSALEM mentioned in revelation 21
Am I understanding your post. It seems to me you have the 1000 year reign and the new Jerusalem simultaneous
And if you don't then do you understand that there won't be physical levites during this time if the temple you are referring to is the one in revelation 21
Because that comes afterwards
After the 1000 year reign is complete
Which is why I asked what temple will these levites be worshipping in
