2. The gates are put for the city itself. The love of God is greatest to his
own elect nation. God delights in the prayers and praises of Christian families
and individuals, but he has a special eye to the assemblies of the faithful.
The great festivals, when the crowds surrounded the temple gates, were fair in
the Lord’s eyes, and this should lead each separate believer to identify with
the church of God; where the Lord reveals his love the most, there should each
believer most delight to be found.
