Thus the body opens with a vision of the heavenly Bridegroom, the Son of Man, and it closes with a vision of the heavenly bride, the new Jerusalem. Toward the end of the body are the contrasting visions of the judgment of the harlot Babylon (17:1-19:111) and the joy of the bride Jerusalem (21:9-22:9). Thus 22:6-9 is the climax of the body and the opening of the epilogue-a literary interweaving of themes characteristic of Revelation elsewhere.

In Revelation, the real book of Life is that of the Lamb, it is not that of the old temple! It is the Lamb and His Bride that are in conflict with the Harlot.
