The new Jerusalem (city of peace): new heaven & a new earth ( new spirit or mind and a new soul or heart)Revelation 21:1.
The old Jerusalem : Canaan ( merechant,traffick)(bring into subjection, subdue,etc.)H3667,3665. Old Jerusalem represents religion with all it's rituals,ceremonies,and traditions of the law that bring us into bondage.
My son, keep thy father's commandment,and forsake not the law of thy mother. Proverbs 6:20
Father:(instructor): Amorite (sayer,act proudly,to boast,mt.dweller or pride)
Mother:a religious establishment or to give birth to; law giver.
Hittite (terror,break down by confusion and fear,etc.) H2850,2845,2865)
These are the religious leaders in organized religion, which keep the people in darkness and bondage.
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they unto him, We be not Born of Fornication; we have one Father, even God...Ye are of your father the devil(1Peter 5:8,9-Proverbs 28:15), and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer(hater) from the beginning, and abode not in the Truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. John 8:30-44.
Sad to say, but many find themselves in bondage,and don't even know it, because they follow after men and religious rituals,ceremonies and trditions. That's why their is so much strife among religious people.
When we are truly born of God; we walk in obedience to His Word through Love.
Love worketh no ill to his neighbour; therefore Love is the fulfilling of the law.
Romans 13:10

Hope this has been helpful.
