Found this on the internet. (In this picture, I think they have the Altar of Incense in the wrong place.)

Is this what you are referring to? Is it also the East Gate? :)

The gate of the court was the entrance to the tabernacle in the wilderness, a holy place God established so he could dwell among his chosen people.

On Mount Sinai, God gave Moses these instructions for making this gate:

"For the entrance to the courtyard, provide a curtain twenty cubits long, of blue, purple and scarlet yarn and finely twisted linen—the work of an embroiderer—with four posts and four bases." ( Exodus 27:16, NIV)​

That is the wilderness tabernacle. See Ezek. 9:2.

Psa. 48:2 "Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King."

Isa. 14:13 "For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:"

Eze. 9:2
"And, behold, six men came from the way of the higher gate, which lieth toward the north, and every man a slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man among them was clothed with linen, with a writer's inkhorn by his side: and they went in, and stood beside the brazen altar." :cool:

Oooooh, I get it now! You're NOT talking about the Temple or Tabernacle. You're talking about God's Courtyard! I never knew He had one. LOL!

So, the answer is the main gate of God's Courtyard is the North Gate. :giggle:(y)

Good one! You got me! LOL! :love:

Hahaha... I picked that one because it wasn't obvious. It takes a little digging, that was why the hint.

This one is a little easier: What was the name of Judah's firstborn son that was married to Tamar, and died childless? :unsure:

Gen. 38:6 "And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar."

It appears his name was Er. ;) Needed a bump for this thread.

Question: What was the name of the brook that Elijah was fed by the ravens?

Oh kk, um I hope it is not a repeat...

What was used to heal the Isrealites after they were bitten by snakes?
Num. 21:8, 9 "And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live. And Moses made a serpent of brass, and put it upon a pole, and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he beheld the serpent of brass, he lived." :cool:

Question: Goliath was armed with a coat of mail; how much did it weigh?

View attachment 190429
I Samuel 17:5 says it was 5000 shekels of brass. Depending on the translation that number equates to anywhere between 120 -126 lbs.


This is a terrific way to study the word, both in answering and in finding a new question. 2 thumbs up on this thread, may it continue forever, lol.

You've got to have the full picture before you can understand what Israel was looking at. I was in So. Cal. getting ready to head to Oakland for mission work. We were staying at a parsonage in a church. I had an old van with cracked ring (it smoked badly) and nearly bald tires. The people of the church said don't go. I realized the loved us and were concerned. I began to doubt that it was really the Lord that told us to go.

I went for a walk to pray and meditate, as I had a wife and two kids to go with us. The Lord really started to talk to me to assure me I was on course. He told me to go to the parsonage and lookup Joshua chapter 3.

When I got there I started reading. The Lord command the people stay back 2000 cubits. He had the Levites that carried the ark head for the Jordan. The Lord said imagine yourself standing there with Israel watching this happen. Scripture says them were up to their soles in the river. He asked me what are you thinking as the river was in flood stage. I said I think that is the last we will see of these Levites and our ark. God said that he wanted it to look bad so they would have to use their faith to go on.

Needless to say, I was ready to head North being assured that God was with me. We didn't even know anyone in Oakland. It appeared we would not quite have enough gas money to get there, but we left anyway. We had pre-arranged to stop at my cousins house in Modesto to visit. That cousin slipped me a twenty dollar bill for the Lord's work. It gave us just enough gas money.

The answer to the question is God drew the waters back into a heap. Interesting also is they walked on dry ground in the riverbed. Every river I have been in had a muddy bottom.

Question: When the Philistines made the ark of God ready to return to Israel by placing five golden emerods (boils), and five golden mice, on it: What city were they in? :cool:
Was it the city of Gath which is the city that Goliath was from?
