***The Book of Revelation does not appear in the original Aramaic Peshitta, nor in many of the earliest Greek manuscript codices, such as Sinaiticus & Vaticanus. The evidence is that the earliest believers did not consider it as Scripture, until 397 AD, at the Council of Carthage.

In Hebraic tradition, the Temple in Jerusalem was often referred to as "heaven and earth" or a microcosm of the universe, symbolizing a connection between the earthly and divine realms. This idea is reflected in the Temple's structure, which was designed to mirror the cosmos, with the inner chambers representing heaven and the outer courts representing the earth and sea. The Temple was seen as a meeting place between YHUH and humanity, a gateway between the earthly and heavenly spheres. The Temple was not just a building; it was a representation of the entire cosmos. The inner sanctuary, or Holy of Holies, symbolized heaven, while the outer courts represented the earth and sea.

Meeting Place:
The Temple was believed to be a place where heaven and earth intersected, a portal through which YHUH's presence could descend and human prayers could ascend.

Symbolic Structure:
The Temple's design, including its materials, furnishings, and rituals, all pointed to a cosmic symbolism, reflecting the ancient understanding of the universe.

Jacob's Ladder:
The concept of the Temple as a bridge between heaven and earth is reminiscent of Jacob's dream of a ladder connecting the two realms, with angels ascending and descending (Genesis 28).

Temple as YHUH's House:
The Temple was also referred to as "Bethel," meaning "God's House," further emphasizing its role as a dwelling place for YHUH on Earth.
The Temple was where Heaven and Earth Was for First-Century Jews. Jews did not always mean “the physical universe” when they spoke of heaven and earth.
