Lectionary Preaching Workbook
We have here the eschatological feast of God. It is to be held
on Mount Zion. The banquet is for all people. Not only will God
provide a banquet but he will destroy humanity's worst enemy,
death. Tears will be wiped away and God will remove disgrace from
the peoples of the earth. All of this is God's work of salvation.
Lesson 2: Revelation 21:1-6a (C)
John is given a vision of the new earth and heaven. The
present earth and heaven will pass away. The new earth and heaven
are the creation of God who will live with his people.
