The New Jerusalem is measured as 1500 miles on a side.

Where is that?

“The New Jerusalem is measured as 1500 miles on a side. Where is that?”

If I were to try to impress upon you the all-encompassing vastness of Christ’s kingdom, I could say that it’s like a city that’s 1,500 miles wide, 1,500 miles long, and 1,500 miles high: something so large it would boggle the mind.

That’s exactly what John did. He was writing hyperbole, not literally.
