Revelation 11 opens and closes with a vision of two temples. The first is a Jewish temple in Jerusalem, and the second is a holy temple in Heaven. The first is a temple where the Messiah is hoped for. The second is a temple where the Messiah reigns over all things. In the midst of the temple in Jerusalem, two witnesses proclaim Jesus Christ as the Messiah to the Jewish worshipers who will become the 144,000 witnesses for Christ through the Great Tribulation. These temples represent the truth that, left to themselves, people turn to what is false and empty while salvation and full hope comes from God to man in the person of Jesus Christ.
Revelation 11:1-19
