 Gate
    (1.) Of cities, as of Jerusalem (Jer. 37:13; Neh. 1:3; 2:3;
    3:3), of Sodom (Gen. 19:1), of Gaza (Judg. 16:3).

      (2.) Of royal palaces (Neh. 2:8).

      (3.) Of the temple of Solomon (1 Kings 6:34, 35; 2 Kings
    18:16); of the holy place (1 Kings 6:31, 32; Ezek. 41:23, 24);
    of the outer courts of the temple, the beautiful gate (Acts
    3:2).

      (4.) Tombs (Matt. 27:60).

      (5.) Prisons (Acts 12:10; 16:27).

      (6.) Caverns (1 Kings 19:13).

      (7.) Camps (Ex. 32:26, 27; Heb. 13:12).

      The materials of which gates were made were,

      (1.) Iron and brass (Ps. 107:16; Isa. 45:2; Acts 12:10).

      (2.) Stones and pearls (Isa. 54:12; Rev. 21:21).

      (3.) Wood (Judg. 16:3) probably.

      At the gates of cities courts of justice were frequently held,
    and hence "judges of the gate" are spoken of (Deut. 16:18; 17:8;
    21:19; 25:6, 7, etc.). At the gates prophets also frequently
    delivered their messages (Prov. 1:21; 8:3; Isa. 29:21; Jer.
    17:19, 20; 26:10). Criminals were punished without the gates (1
    Kings 21:13; Acts 7:59). By the "gates of righteousness" we are
    probably to understand those of the temple (Ps. 118:19). "The
    gates of hell" (R.V., "gates of Hades") Matt. 16:18, are
    generally interpreted as meaning the power of Satan, but
    probably they may mean the power of death, denoting that the
    Church of Christ shall never die.
