What does the Bible say about the temple in Revelation?

Answered in 1 source

The temple in Revelation signifies the church, God's dwelling among His people.

In Revelation, the reference to the temple symbolizes the church, which consists of all believers in Christ through whom God dwells. As noted in Ephesians 2:19-22, believers are built into a spiritual house, a holy temple in the Lord. This indicates that the true temple is not a physical building but the assembly of God's people who worship Him in spirit and truth. The physical temple with its sacrifices has been fulfilled in Christ and is no longer necessary for worship.
Scripture References: Ephesians 2:19-22, 1 Corinthians 3:16, 1 Peter 2:5
