And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

Verse 23 is found in chapter 21 of Revelation. John sees no temple in the city because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. It also needs neither sun nor moon because the glory of God illuminates it. The nations walk by its light, and the kings bring the glory of the nations into it. Its gates remain open, and nothing impure enters there, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life. The vision brings divine presence, holiness, and universal scope together in one image.
