Hebrews 13:14's "non-permanent city" and "continuing city" should be understood in the context of the biblical narrative:
*The "non-permanent city" refers to the earthly Jerusalem, symbolizing the old covenant and its limitations (
Hebrews 7:18-19,
Hebrews 8:6-13).
*The "continuing city" represents the heavenly Jerusalem, the New Jerusalem (
Revelation 21:2), which is the ultimate reality, eternal and perfect.
Hebrews 11:16's "city... prepared for them" points to this heavenly Jerusalem, where God dwells with His people.
The kingdom of God in stages:
*The already-not-yet tension: The heavenly city is already present in Christ, but its full realization awaits the eschaton.
*The church's role: As a community of pilgrims, journeying toward the heavenly city, reflecting its values and hope.
