and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more 
sea."    Revelation 21:1

Since I really am not qualified to determine where in the chronology 
of Revelation things actually happen, I ask two things in reference to 
the above verse:

1) is this 'new heaven-new earth' before, during or after the Millennium?

2) what is to say that this 'new heaven-new earth' is physical as we 
commonly understand it? (see my other Re: The New Jerusalem post).

I am not trying to infer anything with these questions one way or 
another, I am genuinely curious what people think about this.
