Daniel Blanchard, Saint Aubin, June 15 1995
A sanctuary is a holy, sacred, sanctified, consecrated place. It belongs to God, is of God, by God, with God.
The dome measures 90 cubits (45m), 3 x 3 x 10. Ten in Hebrew is the "symbol of two
hands stretched towards heaven", a minimum biblical number signifying prayer. Only 10
righteous persons were necessary to save Sodom.
9 is the number signifying gestation.
The height of the Sanctuary is 72 + 45 = 117 m (+1 +5), this is "the number of the prayer which calls out to God", 17 stands for "the face of the sinner who turns to God". 118 is the number of "full perfection", 123 is the measure of Jesus, given for the Cross, the arms of which measure 123 m, making it be 6 x 123 m in height. God is ONE. The Messiah is a person having 2 natures.
From the Father through the Son, from the Father and the Son proceeds the Spirit, 3rd person of the Trinity. One and Holy, of God 3 times Holy. The circle signifies the NAME of God, the dome: the heavens; here the earth and the new heaven, the fiancé¥ of God, which is the Church raised from the dead, the Spouse of Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of Man Risen from the dead.
The walls of jasper (a brownish glass crystal) will measure
144 x 144 x 144 cubits or 72 m, the number given by God to St. John for the city of
God, the Holy City, the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21:22)
23 = 8, number which signifies Jesus Risen from the dead. 12 x 12 = 144.
12 gates of pearl, the tribes, 12 apostles likened to the 12 precious stones on the
breast plate of the High Priest before the Messiah. 4 sides,
4 elements: earth, water, air, fire, the first 4 dioceses of Rome, Constantinople,
Alexandria and Antioch around Jerusalem signifying the earth which receives the Gift
of God through Jesus in the Holy Spirit.
The number 12 in Hebrew "goes in search of the lost word".

The entrance of the doors measures 6 m. 6 is the number of sanctuary cities. The time of creation lasted 6000 years before the 1000 years of peace, the messianic era, the era of God's peace for man. "No more war", Paul VI announced. And John XXIII: the New Pentecost.
The pearls measure 18m in diameter.
The earthly sphere descends to the interior of the Sanctuary of God's dwelling. The Holy Spirit descends with 9 Beatitudes and 9 fruits of the Holy Spirit. The seven areas for the 7 sacraments are found in the heart of the Sanctuary.
St Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, the Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Principalities, Powers, Virtues, Archangels and Angels measure 20m high over the doors. Heaven is joined to Earth, it is the Communion of Saints, which means complete reconciliation within the created world. The frieze of Angels at the summit is 2 m in height.
