Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

21:22 I saw no temple: This apparent conflict with earlier visions (11:19; 14:15-17) is resolved by understanding each visionary picture in Revelation as a separate symbolic representation of God’s presence. There is no longer any need for a temple in heaven because God is present with his people.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
ὁ & Κύριος ὁ Θεός ὁ Παντοκράτωρ ναὸς αὐτῆς ἐστιν, καὶ τὸ Ἀρνίον
the & Lord ¬the God ¬the Almighty ˓the˒_temple ˱of˲_it is and the Lamb
It may be more natural to put the information about the Lamb with the information about the Lord God. Alternate translation: [the Lord God, the Ruler of All, and the Lamb are her temple]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ὁ & Κύριος ὁ Θεός ὁ Παντοκράτωρ ναὸς αὐτῆς ἐστιν, καὶ τὸ Ἀρνίον
the & Lord ¬the God ¬the Almighty ˓the˒_temple ˱of˲_it is and the Lamb
Since John has just said that there is no temple in the city, he does not mean that the Lord God and the Lamb are literally a temple. Rather, he means that the people in the city can be in God’s presence all the time without having to go to a temple. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the Lord God, the Ruler of All, and the Lamb are always present in the city]
