life

"This (eternal) life on the new earth is nothing other than the full realization of the covenant. God, who from eternity bound himself to be our God - and not to be God in any other way - here proves himself indisputably and undeniably our God, who completely cares for us both directly (Rev. 21:3-4) and indirectly (symbolized by the removal of the sea in v. 1). We come to be God's faithful covenant partners and children..."
