Краткий ответ переведён с помощью ИИ и проверяется. Полное объяснение показано на английском.

Polis is the Greek word for city — the root behind “politics” and “metropolis.” The Bible takes the word and makes it eschatological: the “holy polis, new Jerusalem” comes down from God.

Hebrews says believers are “looking for the polis that has foundations, whose builder and maker is God.” Christian hope is civic in scale: not just personal salvation but a whole city of the redeemed.
