Sense 2: entrance, entranceway, portal

Semantic entry: 7.39

Semantic domains: Constructions

Subdomains: Parts and Areas of Buildings

Definition: the entranceway into a building or structure

Notes: In RV JHN 10:9 · LV JHN 10:9 · Read together JHN 10:9 θύρα[b] is used figuratively to refer to Jesus as the means of access to salvation: ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ θύρα δἰ ἐμοῦ ἐάν τις εἰσέλθω σωθήσεται ‘I am the door; whoever comes in by me will be saved.’ In RV JHN 10:9 · LV JHN 10:9 · Read together JHN 10:9 the emphasis is upon the door as a passageway and not as an object closing off an entrance. Literal translations of ‘I am the door’ may often lead to misinterpretation, since the term used for ‘door’ is likely to refer to a literal door rather than to the entranceway, thus suggesting that Jesus Christ functions primarily to prevent passage rather than making entrance possible.
