Proverbs 26:14Judges 3:23,25Song of Solomon 5:5Judges 16:3Job 38:10

The entrances of the tabernacle had curtains (Exodus 26:31-33,36 ). The "valley of Achor" is called a "door of hope," because immediately after the execution of Achan the Lord said to Joshua, "Fear not," and from that time Joshua went forward in a career of uninterrupted conquest. Paul speaks of a "door opened" for the spread of the gospel (1 Corinthians 16:9; 2 co 2:12; Colossians 4:3 ). Our Lord says of himself, "I am the door" (John 10:9 ). John (Revelation 4:1 ) speaks of a "door opened in heaven."
