Yes, I'm familiar with Bro. Knox. *says no more*

Rev. 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

(emphasis mine)

Again, this is typology, and one would have to actually see the New Jerusalem to understand exactly what John is talking about here, though I think that it might have to do with the beauty and majesty of the adorning of the city itself.

Also, the New Jerusalem is the home of the Bride of Christ, the Church, so viewing the City would in effect be viewing the Bride; the City is a picture of the Church.

The Lamb's Bride is always the Church.
