“The New Jerusalem”

Joseph F. McConkie, Robert L. Millet

There is, however, an additional meaning—a very literal meaning—to this phrase. Enoch’s city—the City of Holiness that was taken up into heaven (see Moses 7:13-21) will come down from heaven and be united with the earthly New Jerusalem (see Elder Bruce R. McConkie, Doctrinal New Testament Commentary 3:581; see also Millennial Messiah, pp. 302-9).
