Bible Question:
"Gate of the temple which is called Beautiful" Does anyone know why this gate is called "Beautiful"? |
Bible Answer: Acts 3:2 "'gate...called Beautiful.' The favorite entrance to the temple court, it was probably the bronze-sheathed gate that is elsewhere called the Nicanor Gate. Apparently it led from the court of the Gentiles to the court of women, on the east wall of the temple proper." (p. 1577, Zondervan NASB Study Bible, Zondervan, 1999) |
