The most remarkable is how far it would extend up into space ...the new holy city, Jerusalem.

To put it into perspective, Mt. Everest is 5.5 miles high.

Passenger jets travel at an altitude of over 9 miles.

Jet fighters ...at around 12 miles.

The Space Shuttle ...at around 170 miles.

The last layer of our atmosphere, the exosphere, begins at approximately 300 miles.

The new Jerusalem would extend more than 4 times that high, and in surface area it would appear to cover all of the Middle East.

Of course, it doesn't mean it is a cube ...it could be shaped like a mountain, like other references in the Old Testament, or perhaps you'd prefer to say a pyramid. 

Anyway, it is beyond remarkable ...and beyond comprehension.  Yes, it is beyond all that.  

                                                           It is wonderful ...and true.
