"Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men,” is how we find it described in the King James Bible. It is significant to note, however, that the verb ‘is’ does not appear in the Greek text. A more literal translation would be, “Behold the tabernacle of God with men!” That is, the tabernacle of God is with men — behold it! The tabernacle of God with men is the holy city, New Jerusalem! The tabernacle of God with men is the bride of the Lamb! Look at the bride! Fasten your eyes upon the holy city! Behold the tabernacle of God with men! By the time we reach this chapter of the Revelation every spiritual mind has figured out that the tabernacle of God is not a tent in the wilderness, nor a temple on mount Moriah, nor a literal city floating down out of space and setting down somewhere in the Middle East, but the tabernacle of God is a spiritual people that has been built up a spiritual house, made of living stones, fitly framed together and compacted by every part, raised up in the earth to be an habitation of God through the Spirit."

"God has always cherished having a place to live. To Him there is “no place like home.” The dwelling place of God, from its simplest beginnings in Genesis to the grand finale in the book of Revelation begins and concludes the whole scheme of God’s purpose to indwell a people through whom to reveal Himself to creation. The first mention of a house for God appears suddenly in the early days of the patriarchs when Jacob, fleeing for his life, came to a certain place and camped there for the night. He took of the stones of the place and arranged them under his head for a pillow and after the setting of the sun he lay down to sleep. And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven, and he saw the angels of God ascending and descending upon it. Then he saw the Lord standing at the top of the ladder, and .the Lord spoke to him, renewing with him the covenant He had made with Abraham and Isaac. And Jacob awoke out of his sleep and in his wonder and excitement he cried, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the House of God; this is the gate of heaven!” And so, Jacob took the stone he had used as a pillow and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on the top of it. Jacob then made this profound statement to the Lord: “And this stone which I have set up as a pillar will be God’s House!” Bethel was a simple house — made up of one stone! It was, however, an anointed house, for Jacob had poured oil on its top. Not a very pretentious house for the great God of the universe, but it was at least a beginning and the revelation was birthed in the earth that blessed night that God will have a house in the midst of men, it will be an anointed house, and it will be built of anointed, living stones! What began in Genesis with one stone, is finally perfected and completed in the Revelation as a dazzling city of precious stones and gold!"
