21:1–22:9 The final scenes of the new heaven and earth are striking pictures of a new community and home for God’s people that is fashioned and given by God. These scenes help to lift the spirits of persecuted Christians. John lays out his basic vision (21:1-8) and follows it with two expansions: (1) In 21:9-27, he presents the new Jerusalem as the site of holy perfection; (2) in 22:1-5, he describes the new Jerusalem as the ultimate Garden of Eden that Adam and Eve could have experienced had they not sinned.
21:1 The vision involves God’s creation of the new heaven and earth (cp. Gen 1:1 with Isa 65:17; 66:22). The old creation has disappeared—it was subject to decay (see Rom 8:20-21; 2 Pet 3:7, 10).
• the sea was also gone: The sea was associated with chaos or the abyss (see study note on Rev 9:1-12) and was sometimes portrayed as a roaring monster (see Pss 46:3; 74:14; see also Job 3:8; 41:1-34; Luke 21:25). The new creation will be free from all such evil.
Note 1 topic: translate-ordinal
ὁ & πρῶτος οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ πρώτη γῆ
the & /the/_first heaven and the first earth
If your language does not use ordinal numbers, you could use cardinal numbers here or equivalent expressions. Alternate translation: “heaven number one and earth number one” or “the former heaven and the former earth”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / personification
ἀπῆλθαν
went_away
John is speaking of the first heaven and the first earth as if they were living things that had gone away on their own. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “no longer existed”
