The Gates of Zion

He has set his foundation on the holy mountain; the Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob. Glorious things are said of you, O city of God: "I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me - Philistia too, and Tyre, along with Cush - and will say, 'This one was born in Zion.'" Indeed, of Zion it will be said, "This one and that one were born in her, and the Most High himself will establish her." The Lord will write in the register of the peoples: "This one was born in Zion. . . ." As they make music they will sing, "All my fountains are in you." Psalm 87, HCSB

One of the photos at the top of this Blog show the Eastern Gates of Jerusalem....these Gates have remained closed.....awaiting their opening by The Massiach when He comes to His Temple Mount. Then these Gates will become the "Beautiful Gates" that they were intended to be! And then we will rejoice with all those in Zion who love the G-d of Israel and His Messiah!
