NEW HEAVEN TEMPLE OF WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, HARMONY, LOVE, PEACE AND UNITY
HISTORICAL BASE
The Babylonian threat to the Kingdom of Judah began as the Babylonian Empire conquered Assyria and rose to power from 612-609 BCE. Jerusalem surrendered without major bloodshed to Babylon in 597. An Israelite uprising brought the destruction of Nebuchadnezzar’s army upon Jerusalem in 586 BCE. The entire city, including the First Temple, was burned. Israelite aristocrats were taken captive to Babylon.
The Book of Ezekiel contains the first record of the New Jerusalem. Within Ezekiel 40-48, (Ezek 40-48) there is an extended and detailed description of the measurements of the Temple, its chambers, porticos, and walls. Chapter 48:30-35 contains a list of twelve Temple gates named for Israel’s tribes. (Ezek 48:30-35)
The book of Zechariah expands upon Ezekiel’s New Jerusalem. After the Second Temple was built after the exile, Jerusalem’s population was only a few hundred. There were no defensive city walls until 445 BCE. In the passage, the author writes about a city wall of fire to protect the enormous population. In Ezekiel, the focus is primarily on the human act of Temple construction. In Zechariah, the focus shifts to God’s intercession in the founding of New Jerusalem.
New Jerusalem is further extrapolated in Isaiah where New Jerusalem is adorned with precious sapphires, jewels, and rubies. The city is described as a place free from terror and full of righteousness.
CONSTRUCTION
NEW HEAVEN TEMPLE OF WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, HARMONY, LOVE, PEACE AND UNITY should be a reflection of mental heavenly temple to the Earth. The temple should be a distributed system of temples across the planet. All temples should be similar to each other. Temple at the bottom of the underground part may contain an atomic or thermonuclear power plant, the temple surface should concentrate solar energy. Higher may be located gene engineering biotechnological laboratories. In the over-ground part of the temple are located information and computer resources, congress hall and a library-museum. On the upper floors there are an observatory and viewing area.
