Could the book of revelation be understood as a monomyth or Fool's Journey? a psychological/spiritual journey of consciousness?


in revelation there is the mention of the measure of the angel, or measure of a man?


revelation 21:17


could this be the realization of enlightenment? apotheosis?

Rev 21:17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
A cubit is the length of a man's arm from elbow to the end of the middle finger.
The verse is giving the height of a wall.

the city to be exact and 144 is a gross, or whole.


you are the light of the world, a city set on a hill cannot be hid.

revelation 21:10

the light within, or enlightened
