John continues: "Also, night will be no more and they have no need of lamplight nor do they have sunlight, because Jehovah God will shed light upon them." (Revelation 22:5a) Ancient Jerusalem, like any other city on earth, relied on the sun for light by day and on the moonlight and artificial light by night. But in heavenly New Jerusalem, such lighting will be unnecessary. The city will be illuminated by Jehovah himself. "Night" may also be used in a figurative sense, referring to adversity of separation from Jehovah. (Micah 3:6; John 9:4; Romans 13:11, 12) There could never be that kind of light at night om the glorious presence of the Almighty God.
