Verse 13
On the east three gates ,.... On which were written the names of Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan:
on the north three gates ; on which were written the names of Reuben, Judah, and Levi:
on the south three gates ; on which were written the names of Simeon, Issachar, and Zabulon:
and on the west three gates ; on which were written the names of Gad, Asher, and Naphtali; see Ezekiel 48:31 . This denotes the collection of the saints from all parts of the world, who shall come from east, west, north, and south, and sit down in the kingdom of God; and therefore here are gates at every point to enter in at; see Isaiah 43:5 .
