Study Note
The great voice from the throne announcing 'the dwelling of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God' is the eschatological fulfillment of the covenant formula that runs from Leviticus 26:12 through the entire Hebrew prophetic tradition. The Greek verb 'dwell' (skēnosei — pitch a tent, tabernacle) echoes the Tabernacle language of Exodus and the Johannine prologue (John 1:14: 'the Word became flesh and dwelt among us'). The plural 'peoples' (laoi in the best manuscripts) indicates that the new creation encompasses all the nations, not merely Israel, fulfilling the Abrahamic promise of blessing to all families of the earth. The verse has been central to Christian eschatology's insistence that the final state is not humans going to a distant heaven but God coming to dwell permanently among a renewed humanity.
