Why do you think Herbert called his book of poems "The Temple" ? ( MEG 101 ) ( GEORGE HERBERT )

Herbert called his book of poems "The Temple" because he envisioned his poems as offering a spiritual journey for the reader, leading them through various areas of a temple in which God is worshipped. The poems are organized into three sections: "The Church," "The Temple," and "The Church Militant." Each section offers a different aspect of Christian experience and worship, such as the liturgy, prayer, and contemplation. The title also reflects the influence of the metaphysical tradition, in which the human soul is seen as a microcosm of the divine temple. By calling his book "The Temple," Herbert emphasizes the spiritual nature of his poetry and its focus on the worship of God.
