Verse 10 is found in chapter 21 of Revelation. One of the angels takes John to see the bride of the Lamb, identified with the holy city, Jerusalem, descending from heaven. The city possesses the glory of God and a great wall with twelve gates, each associated with a tribe of Israel, and twelve foundations associated with the apostles of the Lamb. The architecture symbolizes continuity and fullness of God’s people: the twelve tribes and twelve apostles appear integrated into the eschatological city.

Und er führte mich hin im Geist auf einen großen und hohen Berg und zeigte mir die große Stadt, das heilige Jerusalem, herniederfahren aus dem Himmel von Gott,
Y llevome en Espíritu a un grande y alto monte, y me mostró la grande ciudad santa de Jerusalem, que descendía del cielo de Dios,
Me llevó en el Espíritu a un monte grande y alto, y me mostró la ciudad santa, Jerusalén, que descendía del cielo, de Dios.
Et il me transporta en esprit sur une grande et haute montagne. Et il me montra la ville sainte, Jérusalem, qui descendait du ciel d'auprès de Dieu,
Ed egli mi trasportò in ispirito sopra un grande ed alto monte; e mi mostrò la gran città, la santa Gerusalemme, che scendeva dal cielo, d’appresso a Dio;
E levou-me em espírito a um grande e alto monte, e mostrou-me a grande cidade, a santa Jerusalém, que de Deus descia do céu.
