Psalm 24... Who is this King of Glory? Temple Gate, near the Threshing Floor





      JERUSALEM GATES:
  1. Sheep Gate/Herod's Gate/Flower Gate is through which animals were brought for sacrifice. This is the gate Y'shua used [John 5:2], with exception of His triumphal entry.
  2. Fish Gate was on the path for fish being brought from the Mediterranean Sea & Jordan River. Y'shua he calls out to Peter and his brother Andrew, "Come, follow me and I will make you fishers of men."
  3. Old Gate is one of the original city gates.
    Jeremiah 6:16
    "This is what the Lord says: Stand at the crossroads and look; ask the ancient paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls..."
  4. Valley Gate opened into the calley of Hinnom. Prophetic, the valley gate would speak of the humbling and suppression of the ekklesia in humility following on from when church & Christianity was made a state religion under Constantine.
  5. Dung Gate/Silwan Gate/Maghrabi Gate provides an exit for trash & refuse to be taken out of the City. Inside, the path to this gate leads to the wailing wall.
  6. Fountain Gate, located near the Pool of Shloah; near the Dung Gate, and a place cleansing for preparation.
  7. Water Gate, near the Fountain Gate, leads down to the Gihon Spring, from which water can be brought up into the City.
  8. Horse Gate, located near the King's stables. The path to go out to war leads through this Gate.
  9. East Gate, on the East side of Jerusalem opposite of the Mount of Olives, sees Messiah come through in His return.
  10. Inspection Gate provided a place for king David to review his troops.
  11. Golden Gate
  12. Gate of Mercy/Repentance
  13. Damascus Gate/Nablus Gate/Gate of the Pillar
  14. Lion's Gate/Gate of the Tribes/Yehoshafat's Gate

Temple TimeLine

Long ago, portions of the ekklesia were dawn away by men who cleverly positioned people behind them onto divisions; also speaking perverse things. Paul of Tarsus had warned the saints about their coming. [Acts 20:25-31]
 
title: Church Departed
KJV Rules for translation
As schisms festered and divisions multiplied... competing opinions prevailing, rather than receiving the unity of the Spirit that furnishes consensus.
Now men would select whatever each one valued from traditions and sacred writings, also to direct for how the writings should be understood.
