SHEEP GATE

Jerusalem gate repaired by Eliashib and the priests under Nehemiah’s supervision during the postexilic era (Neh 3:1, 32; 12:39). It was positioned east of the Fish Gate by the Tower of the Hundred, near the pool of Bethesda (Bethsaida) and a short distance from the modern St Stephen’s Gate. In John 5:2 the KJB translates it “Sheep Market” and the neb, “Sheep-Pool.”
