By the time one gets round to reading Revelation 21, Messiah and His saints would have spent a thousand years/millennium, having refurbished the earth and rehabilitated it to Edenic beauty (see Revelation 20vs1-6; & possibly combine it with other Scriptures such as Isaiah 2vs1-5; 11vs1-9; Isaiah 51vs1-4; Ezekiel 34- 36; et cetera). From there, the earth will then be fit enough to have New Jerusalem descend upon her, such that God
