“For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.” –Hebrews 13:14
From the first pages of Genesis to the final words of Revelation, the theme of the city of God is prominent.Linking the garden of Eden to the New Jerusalem.
At the very heart of God’s plan for the world stands an extraordinary city. Beginning with the garden of Eden in Genesis and ending with the New Jerusalem in Revelation, the biblical story reveals how God has been working throughout history to establish a city filled with his glorious presence. Tracing the development of the theme of city in both testaments, T. Desmond Alexander draws on his experience as a biblical scholar to show us God’s purpose throughout Scripture to dwell with his redeemed people in a future extraordinary city on a transformed earth.
