The Fish Gate was one of Jerusalem's northern gates, likely linked to market traffic from the coast or north. It is important because it appears in rebuilding accounts and prophetic descriptions of the city. First appears in 2 Chr 33:14.1
AI summary: The Fish Gate matters because it helps make Jerusalem's daily commercial and defensive life concrete. Nehemiah names it in the rebuilding of the walls, while prophetic texts use it in describing alarm or renewed urban order. The cross references present the Fish Gate as a northern entrance where trade, repair, and prophetic city-language come together.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). 3
