miles long, there will be three gates, each one named after a tribe of Israel.
The first will be named for Reuben, the second for Judah, and the third
for Levi. On the east wall, also 11/2 miles long, the gates will be named for
Joseph, Benjamin, and Dan. The south wall, also 11/2 miles long, will have
gates named for Simeon, Issachar, and Zebulun. And on the west wall,
also 11/2 miles long, the gates will be named for Gad, Asher, and Naphtali.
“The distance around the entire city will be 6 miles. And from that day
the name of the city will be ‘The Lord Is There.’”
