'But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable angels in festal gathering' — the eschatological catalogue that follows (verses 22–24) presents the believer's present access in worship to the heavenly assembly, contrasting with Sinai's terrifying inaccessibility (verses 18–21). The 'heavenly Jerusalem' draws on the apocalyptic tradition of the celestial city (Galatians 4:26; Revelation 21:2) and the Zion theology of the Psalms of Ascent, indicating that Christian worship is participation in a heavenly rather than merely earthly reality. The 'innumerable angels in festal gathering' (muriasin angelōn, panēgurei) uses the vocabulary of ancient festival assembly, presenting the liturgical gathering of the church as a cosmic festival attended by the entire angelic host. The verse has been foundational for Christian theologies of worship as heavenly participation and for high-church liturgical traditions that emphasize the eschatological dimension of earthly worship.
