Jerusalem—the whole city, not merely the temple. As it has been the center of the Hebrew theocracy, so it shall be the point of attraction to the whole earth (Isaiah 2:2-4; Zechariah 2:10-11; Zechariah 14:16-21).
throne of . . . Lord—The Shekinah, the symbol of God's peculiar nearness to Israel (Deuteronomy 4:7) shall be surpassed by the antitype, God's own throne in Jerusalem (Psalms 2:6, Psalms 2:8; Ezekiel 34:23-24; Zechariah 2:5).
imagination—rather, as Margin, "the obstinacy" or stubbornness.
