Whose names are written on the foundations of the New Jerusalem?
The wall of the city has twelve foundations, and written in those foundations are the names of the twelve apostles. This group includes Peter, James, John, and the remaining apostles. Scripture identifies them as the foundation names, distinct from the twelve tribes of Israel written on the gates.
Les teaches that the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in these foundations were the names of the twelve apostles. He specifies that would be Peter, James, and John, and the rest. This differs from the twelve gates, which have names written on them that are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. The gates are arranged three on the east, three on the north, three on the south, and three on the west. The city is also described as four square and measured as a cube, 1,500 miles long, wide, and high.
