this_o city_n to_o descend_v out_o of_o it_o three_o and_o why_o she_o be_v say_v to_o descend_v out_o of_o it_o from_o god_n first_o for_o the_o word_n heaven_n in_o scripture_n it_o be_v various_o to_o be_v understand_v but_o general_o either_o material_o or_o metaphorical_o now_o not_o material_o here_o but_o metaphorical_o and_o so_o be_v general_o if_o not_o always_o take_v in_o this_o

show_v you_o what_o be_v to_o understand_v by_o this_o that_o she_o be_v say_v to_o descend_v out_o of_o heaven_n for_o indeed_o to_o speak_v proper_o jerusalem_n be_v always_o in_o the_o scripture_n
