The Corner Gate was one of Jerusalem's defensive gates, marking a key point in the city's wall system. It is important because it appears in accounts of attack, rebuilding, expansion, and prophetic visions of the city's future extent. First appears in 2 Kgs 14:13.1
AI summary: The Corner Gate matters because it lets biblical history speak in the language of Jerusalem's actual walls. Kings and Chronicles place it in moments of military humiliation and royal building, while Jeremiah and Zechariah use it when describing the restored shape and reach of the city. That means the gate carries both historical and hopeful significance. The cross references present the Corner Gate as a fixed urban landmark through which the Bible describes defeat, defense, and future restoration.1
