Golden cube? Are you high?
Haven't you ever read your favorite ethnocentric Middle Eastern Jewish religious fairy tale?
https://i.pinimg.com/736x/fc/15/86/fc158...usalem.jpg
"Revelation 21:10-21 (CEB)
10 He took me in a Spirit-inspired trance to a great, high mountain, and he showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. 11 The city had God’s glory. Its brilliance was like a priceless jewel, like jasper that was as clear as crystal. 12 It had a great high wall with twelve gates. By the gates were twelve angels, and on the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel’s sons. 13 There were three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. 14 The city wall had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the Lamb’s twelve apostles.
15 The angel who spoke to me had a gold measuring rod with which to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. 16 Now the city was laid out as a square. Its length was the same as its width. He measured the city with the rod, and it was fifteen hundred miles.[a] Its length and width and height were equal. 17 He also measured the thickness of its wall. It was two hundred sixteen feet[b] thick, as a person—or rather, an angel—measures things. 18 The wall was built of jasper, and the city was pure gold, like pure glass. 19 The city wall’s foundations were decorated with every kind of jewel. The first foundation was jasper, the second was sapphire, the third was chalcedony, and the fourth was emerald. 20 The fifth was sardonyx, the sixth was carnelian, the seventh was chrysolite, and the eighth was beryl. The ninth was topaz, the tenth was chrysoprase, the eleventh was jacinth, and the twelfth was amethyst. 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates was made from a single pearl. And the city’s main street was pure gold, as transparent as glass."

Um, Huggles.
Quote:He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia[c] in length, and as wide and high as it is long.
That's pretty much a cube. You see, pyramids tend to be wider on the bottom and tiny on top..... pretty much like the WLB.

Not only is it about 1,400-1,500 miles square it's also 1,400-1,500 miles high. And it's on a waterless planet that doesn't have any darkness.
Revelation 21:16-16 (CEV) = "16 The city was shaped like a cube, because it was just as high as it was wide. When the angel measured the city, it was about fifteen hundred miles high and fifteen hundred miles wide. 17 Then the angel measured the wall, and by our measurements it was about two hundred sixteen feet high."
Revelation 21:1-2 (CEV) = "21 I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth had disappeared, and so had the sea. 2 Then I saw New Jerusalem, that holy city, coming down from God in heaven. It was like a bride dressed in her wedding gown and ready to meet her husband."
So there's no sea on the planet which means that there are no islands. It's sort of like being on Mercury or Mars but with a building that's 1,500 miles tall. That has to play hell with the gravity. It would be a large planet with a very low mass in order for the building to sit flat on the ground.

Quote:Daniel 9:16 King James Version (KJV)
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain:
Quote:Isaiah 66:20
And they shall bring all your brethren for an offering unto the Lord out of all nations upon horses, and in chariots, and in litters, and upon mules, and upon swift beasts, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, saith the Lord, as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
Are mountains cube or pyramid shaped?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain
Quote:A mountain is a large landform that stretches above the surrounding land in a limited area, usually in the form of a peak.
Quote:Psalm 118
22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner.
Jesus Christ is the stone that was rejected and will be the capstone of the New Jerusalem, how are you going to be a capstone of a cube?
All this is symbolized by the absence of a capstone on the great pyramid.

How many different versions of the bible are you going to quote?
The word 'cube' does not appear in the KJV, which lets you know it is clearly an addition after the fact.

Huggy, head stones are the bases of corners.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Why would the Lord God Almighty have the hots for a pagan Egyptian shape like a pyramid?
Seems blasphemous to even think such a thing.
Best to go with a cube since that is what is specified, and it doesn't give glory to those fucking Egyptians for presaging some vital aspect of Christianity.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. - Daniel 2:34-35
Pyramids are not an Egyptian invention, many cultures have pyramids. In fact the Great Pyramid preexisted the Egyptian civilization (according to some sources it was built by Enoch).
When Abraham left Ancient Mesopotamia, the Bible states he was looking for a city who builder and maker is God:
For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. - Hebrews 11:10
Guess where Abraham went? He went to Egypt... He knew that the New Jerusalem would be in that area, his timing was just off.
There is no big CUBE erected in Egypt, but there is a big PYRAMID symbolizing that is the area where the New Jerusalem will appear.

-and here I was hoping that it was simple confusion of terms used in masonry, lol. That..I would understand. Our heads are at the top..so when we see the word headstone maybe we think it's at the top, and conflate that with a capstone...as our bud here so blatantly did, even substituting the two terms for each other.
Nope...turns out there;s an elaborate fantasy complex underpinning and facilitating that. Fuckin turtles alllllll the way down.
