New Jerusalem
In the Book of Ezekiel, New Jerusalem ((יְהוָה שָׁמָּה, Jehovah-shammah, or ""[where] YHWH [is] there"") is Ezekiel's prophetic vision of a city centered on the rebuilt Holy Temple, the Third Temple, to be established in Jerusalem, that will be the capital of the Messianic Kingdom, the meeting place of the twelve tribes of Israel, and of the world's nations, during the Messianic era. The prophecy is recorded by Ezekiel as having been received on Yom Kippur of the year 3372 of the Hebrew calendar.In the New Testament it is also titled Heavenly Jerusalem in the Book of Revelation as well as Zion in other books of the Christian Bible. In Christian eschatology it is a city that will be established to the south of the Temple Mount and will be inhabited by the twelve tribes of Israel after the Messianic era when Christ reigns over the saints (Revelation 20-21).
