Revelation 11:1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

I could be wrong here, but it seems to me, the more I think about it---the temple(sanctuary if you prefer) of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein---this equals the holy city meant in verse 2. And if that is the case, this couldn't possibly be meaning in a literal sense, such as a literal city, a literal temple. And if I am correct, the fact I already don't take the temple and city in the literal sense to begin with, this is further proof why I shouldn't.


Sometimes I think I have more Amil in me than most Amils do, yet I'm Premil. You would think Amils would be the ones who wouldn't be taking Revelation 11:1-2 in the literal sense, and not a Premil like me instead.
