The Fountain Gate
was repaired by Shallun son of Col-Hozeh,
ruler of the district of Mizpah.
He rebuilt it, roofing it over
and putting its doors and bolts and bars in place.
He also repaired the wall of the Pool of Siloam,
by the King's Garden,
as far as the steps going down from the City of David.
Beyond him, Nehemiah son of Azbuk,
ruler of a half-district of Beth Zur,
made repairs up to a point opposite the tombs of David,
as far as the artificial pool
and the House of the Heroes.
~ Nehemiah 3
Blessed are those who wash their robes,that they may have the right to the tree of life
and may go through the gates into the city.
~ Revelation 22
