Why the need for Healing Leaves if there is no sickness in heaven or The new Jerusalem? | ||||||
2 | Healing Leaves in Heaven? | Rev 22:2 | BradK | 214639 | ||
Hello unction, That's a good question- and one for which there's some variance of views. "...and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations." (NASB) The Commentary Critical observes, "leaves … for … healing — (Ezek. 47:9, 12). The leaves shall be the health-giving preventive securing the redeemed against, not healing them of, sicknesses, while “the fruit shall be for meat.” In the millennium described in Ezek. 47:1–23 and Rev. 20:1–15, the Church shall give the Gospel-tree to the nations outside Israel and the Church, and so shall heal their spiritual malady; but in the final and perfect new Jerusalem here described, the state of all is eternally fixed, and no saving process goes on any longer (compare Rev. 22:11)." Robertson notes, "For the healing of the nations [eis therapeian ton ethnon]. Spiritual healing, of course, as leaves [phulla]) are often used for obtaining medicines. Here again the problem occurs whether this picture is heaven before the judgment or afterwards." I hope this helps, BradK |
