📚 Historical Context
The book of Revelation was written by the Apostle John around AD 95 during intense persecution of Christians under the Roman Empire, serving as a letter of encouragement and prophecy to churches in Asia Minor. In this vision of the New Jerusalem, which represents the ultimate fulfillment of God's kingdom on earth, the verse depicts nations bringing their glory and honor into the city, symbolizing the redemption and inclusion of all peoples under Christ's rule as foretold in Old Testament prophecies. This highlights the biblical theme of global worship and unity in God's eternal plan.
