But I think Jeremiah 3 is unequivocal.
3 They say, If a man put away his wife, and she go from him, and become another man's, shall he return unto her again?.............................
6 The Lord said also unto me in the days of Josiah the king, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there hath played the harlot.
7 And I said after she had done all these things, Turn thou unto me. But she returned not. And her treacherous sister Judah saw it. 8 And I saw, when for all the causes whereby backsliding Israel committed adultery I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce; yet her treacherous sister Judah feared not, but went and played the harlot also...........................
12 Go and proclaim these words toward the north, and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the Lord, and I will not keep anger for ever.
13 Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the Lord.
14 Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.16 And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the Lord, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the Lord: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.17 At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the Lord; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.

(Ack! lol this is why I try not to visit during work hours...its hard to pull myself away.)
Notice verse 20 is another way of prophesying the "New Covenant" promise (i.e. regathering of all Israel & forgiveness of sin) and it's promised for "in those days". The Messiah hadn't come yet during the time of Ezra. and when He came He didnt covenant with all Israel since the Jews rejected Him.l, but only covenants with His disciples (and anyone who believed). There is still a promise when all Israel with experiencethe new covenant. So this passage is a future prophecy in the same vein as Ezekiel 37 and doesnt apply to the return of the babylonian exile.
Notice here that it's Daniel praying for all of Israel, which is perfectly fine to do. At the start of this prayer in verse 2 he shows his reasoning for the prayer, counting 70 years for the desolation of Jerusalem. Judah dwelled in Jerusalem. This isn't Gabriel speaking.

Yeah still eating and growing as far as the text goes...there's a passage that mentions dying at 100 will be considered young.
Also recall that the transformed Messiah ate with His disciples.
...I suppose - if we consider that the end is told from the beginning - when eden is restored that eating animals may also be reversed? But I'm just guessing at this point.

We don't know the wonders God has in store. I was reading in Song of Solomon the other day and saw this verse:
Song of Solomon:9 King Solomon made himself a chariot of the wood of Lebanon.
10 He made the pillars thereof of silver, the bottom thereof of gold, the covering of it of purple, the midst thereof being paved with love, for the daughters of Jerusalem.
I was curious about the word "paved." to fit together, fit out, pattern.
That chariot is New Jerusalem and daughters of Jerusalem are part of the design. Fascinating. What a flowery image of Jesus building a chariot designed to hold us for eternity. Gives me the impression that the "city" may be so much more than a stationary city with streets and buildings. The whole habitation may be ... I don't want to say "space ship," but it might be a habitation of no bounds and can be anywhere or go anywhere.

"Sea" represents multitudes of people, narrow is the way, few will find it
(The Eternal Kingdom) same river and Tree of life, same fruit, same leaves of the tree for healing/medicine
Ezekiel 47:12KJV
12 And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
Revelation 22:1-2KJV
1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

The beast rose out of the "Sea" multitudes of people, not actual water like the creature from the black lagoon
Revelation 13:1KJV
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
There was no more "Sea" multitudes of people, not oceans of water
Narrow is the way to eternal life, few will find it, no more multitudes of people will be seen in the New Heaven and Earth

Well Daniel is praying for both houses. Gabriel replies:
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression....
I suppose you could argue otherwise, but it seems to me that Gabriel has made a prophetic leap, and compounded the fractured houses into one - the people of Israel.
But Jeremiah throughout talks about the return of both house concurrently.
30: 3 For, lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.
Chapter 31 is particularly unequivocal:
31 At the same time, saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.
2 Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest.3 The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.4 Again I will build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel:
You applied Ezekiel 47 to disqualify it as being the eternal kingdom because oceans of water "Sea" is present, of course there will be literal seas, fish, and fishermen
As Revelation 21:1 States there was no more "Sea" meaning multitudes of people, not oceans of water
Yes Ezekiel 47:12, Revelation 21:1 & Revelation 22:1-2 is exactly the same place in the Eternal New Heven, Earth, Jerusalem

You seem to be talking out of both sides of your mouth.
In one breath you say things will be "spiritual" coz EVERYTHING "physical" / "tangible" will be blasted away and burned up and obliterated! (... and you rail on anyone saying otherwise
)
And in another breath you say there will be "literal seas," OF COURSE!
Pick which story you're sticking to.

At no time have I claimed is not tangible,with Angel's and harps floating around like transparent ghosts, your false claim
There will be no Milleneial Kingdom on this earth, it will be gone, dissolved by fire, as you have seen several times
That seen in Revelation 20:1-6 is taking place presently in the spiritual realm, and it will cease at the second coming, those seen have not received the glorified tangible body, they are "Souls" waiting for the second coming, and last day resurrection
