The word used to designate one of the gates of Jerusalem ('ashpoth, Nehemiah 2:13; Nehemiah 3:14) is more general than the others and may mean any kind of refuse. The gate was probably so named because outside it was the general dump heap of the city. Visitors in recent years riding outside the city walls of Jerusalem, on their way to the Mt. of Olives or Jericho, may have witnessed such a dump against the wall, which has existed for generations. GATE gat (Hebrew normally (over 300 times) sha`ar; occasionally deleth, properly, "gateway" (but compare Deuteronomy 3:5); elsewhere the gateway is pethach (compare especially Genesis 19:6); Aramaic tera`; Greek pulon, pule; the English Revised Version and the King James Version add caph, "threshold," in 1 Chronicles 9:19, 22; and the King James Version adds delathayim, "double-door," in Isaiah 45:1; thura, "door," Acts 3:2): GATE, EAST The expressions are found in Ezekiel: "Even the gate that looketh toward the east" (43:1); "The gate whose prospect is toward the east" (43:4); but the idea of a gate on the eastern side as the principal entrance to the court of the sanctuary goes back to the days of the tabernacle (Exodus 27:13-16). In addition to its use as admitting to the sanctuary enclosure, it may be presumed, in analogy with the general mode of the administration of justice, to have been the place where in earlier times cases were tried which were referred to the jurisdiction of the sanctuary (compare Exodus 18:19-22 Deuteronomy 17:8; Deuteronomy 19:16, 18 Numbers 27:2, 3, etc.). GATE, THE BEAUTIFUL bu'-ti-fool (he horaia pule tou hierou): GATE, VALLEY In Nehemiah 2:13 the King James Version, "gate of the valley." HAMMIPHKAD, GATE OF ha-mif'-kad (sha`ar ha-miphqadh, "Gate of the Muster"): One of the gates of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 3:31) not mentioned elsewhere; probably situated near the Northeast corner of the Temple area. MIPHKAD; GATE OF mif'-kad, (sha`ar ha-miphqadh; the Revised Version (British and American) "Hammiphkad" (Nehemiah 3:31)): A gate in, or near, the north end of the east wall of Jerusalem, rebuilt under Nehemiah. Its exact position is uncertain. POTSHERD GATE (Jeremiah 19:2). SHALLECHETH, THE GATE shal'-e-keth, sha-le'-keth (sha`ar shallekheth, i.e. as in margin, "Casting forth"): A gate of the temple "at the causeway that goeth up" (1 Chronicles 26:16)-probably an ascent from the Tyropoeon Valley to the West of the temple. It has been supposed on account of the meaning of the name that the ashes and offal of the temple were cast forth there, but this is very unlikely-they were thrown into the Kidron valley to the East or Southeast. The Septuagint has pastophorion, which seems to point to a building with chambers; in consonance with this Cheyne reads in the Hebrew lishkoth, "(of) the chambers." SHEEP GATE (sha`ar ha-tso'-n (Nehemiah 3:1, 32; Nehemiah 12:39)): One of the gates of Jerusalem, probably near the northeast corner. See JERUSALEM.

VALLEY GATE (sha`ar ha-gay', "Gate of the Gai"): Is placed (Nehemiah 3:13) between the "tower of the furnaces" and the "dung gate"; from here Nehemiah (2:13) set out on his ride down the "Gai" (Hinnom) to Siloam, and, too (12:31, 38), from here the Levites commenced their compass of the city in two directions. It must have been an ancient gate, for Uzziah added towers to it (2 Chronicles 26:9). It was probably near the Southwest corner of the city and near to, if not identical with, the gate found by Bliss near (now in) the Protestant Cemetery.

At the Temple Gate Outside the Eden Gate. Lord of Mercy, at Thy Gate, Whether Christ Opened the Gate of Heaven to us by his Passion? O Lord of Mercy, at Thy Gate February the Fifth Everywhere the Gate of Heaven The Gate of Life Stands Wide, Smith's Bible Dictionary GateThe gate and gateways of eastern cities anciently held and still hold an important part, not only in the defence but in the public economy of the place. They are thus sometimes taken as representing the city itself. (Genesis 22:17; 24:60; 12:12; Judges 5:8; Ruth 4:10; Psalms 87:2; 122:2) Among the special purposes for which they were used may be mentioned.
ATS Bible Dictionary GateThe gates of eastern walled towns were usually of wood, Jud 16:3, often covered with thick plates of iron or copper, Psalm 107:16 Isaiah 45:2 Acts 12:10, secured by bolts and bars, De 3:5 1 Kings 4:13, and flanked by towers, 2 Samuel 18:24,33. A city was usually regarded as taken when its gates were won, De 28:52 Jud 5:8. Hence "gate" sometimes signifies power, dominion; almost in the same sense as the Turkish sultan's palace is called the Porte, or Gate. God promises Abraham that his posterity shall possess the gates of their enemies- their towns, their fortresses, Genesis 22:17. So too, "the gates of hell," that is, the power of hell, or hell itself. In oriental cities there was always an open space or place adjacent to each gate, and these were at the same time the market places, and the place of justice, Genesis 23:10-18 Ruth 4:1-12 De 16:18 21:19 25:6,7 Proverbs 22:22 Am 5:10,12,15. There, too, people assembled to spend their leisure hours, Genesis 19:1. Hence "they that sit in the gate" is put for idlers, loungers, who are coupled with drunkards, Psalm 69:12. The woes of a city were disclosed in the mourning or loneliness of these places of resort, Isaiah 14:31 Jeremiah 14:2. Here too the public proclamations were made, and the messages of prophets delivered, Proverbs 1:21 8:3 Isa 29:21 Jeremiah 17:19 26:10. Near the gate of a city, but without it, executions took place, 1 Kings 21:13 Acts 7:58 Hebrews 13:12. To exalt the gate of a house through pride, increased one's exposure to robbery, Proverbs 17:19. To open it wide and high was significant of joy and welcome, as when the Savior ascended to heaven, Psalm 24:7,9; and the open gates of the new Jerusalem in contrast with those of earthly cities carefully closed and guarded at nightfall, indicate the happy security of that world of light, Revelation 21:25.

At the gates of cities courts of justice were frequently held, and hence "judges of the gate" are spoken of (Deuteronomy 16:18; 17:8; 21:19; 25:6, 7, etc.). At the gates prophets also frequently delivered their messages (Proverbs 1:21; 8:3; Isaiah 29:21; Jeremiah 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 (Psalm 118:19). "The gates of hell" (R.V., "gates of Hades") Matthew 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.
