I would like to add some more points:
1. In Galatians, it's Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles who is speaking.
2. In Revelation, it's John the Apostle to the Jews who is speaking.
3. Therefore, in Galatians, the context of the "Jerusalem which is from above" is in relation to the Body of Christ; on the other hand, in Revelation, the context is "New Jerusalem" in relation to Israel.
