Revelation 21:2

21:2 And I saw the holy city – the new Jerusalem – descending out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband.

Revelation 3:12

3:12 The one who conquers 1  I will make 2  a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will never depart from it. I 3  will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God (the new Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from my God), 4  and my new name as well.

1 tn Or “who is victorious”; traditionally, “who overcomes.”

2 tn Grk “I will make him,” but the pronoun (αὐτόν, auton, “him”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated here.

3 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

4 sn This description of the city of my God is parenthetical, explaining further the previous phrase and interrupting the list of “new names” given here.
