Psal. xi. 4.2. TEMPLE sometimes is put for Heaven. The Lord is in his holy temple; the Lord’s throne is in Heaven. The Martyrs in Rev. vii. 15.Heaven are said to be before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple.
1 Cor. iii. 16. 17.3. The TEMPLE of God, in a spiritual Sense, is the Soul of a righteous Man. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. And elsewhere, Know ye not that your body is 1 Cor. vi. 19. 2 Cor. vi. 16.the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? And again; And what agreement hath the temple of God with Idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
