Thank you, Anna. This just makes me wonder how much more we are missing and what glory and beauty we have yet to behold. I think of how different church meetings would be with our eyes open to this vision that you reveal.
Yes, the vision is repeated in the second Korahite collection, but I really see it everywhere. The Psalms alone have 38 references to Zion. The Song and Lamentations are given over to the Son juxtaposed with Daughter Zion, to say nothing of Isaiah 40-66 and Jeremiah. The vision of the Son and Spirit-city evoke every religious emotion—-from lament to greatest ecstasy. They help us understand our pain at present and the longings of our heart for what is ahead.
