‘The Fish Gate.’
(It simply got its name because the fish market was nearby this gate)
a) Nehemiah 3:3. Was rebuilt by the sons of Haasenaah. They:-
1- Laid the beams.
2- Set up its doors.
3- Installed its bolts and bars.
b) 2 Chronicles 33:14. Was a strategic place in Manasseh’s rebuilding programme for Jerusalem.

The beams needed to be laid before the doors could be set up. Sometimes we are in too much of a hurry to “get things done” in the Churches rather than following God’s perfect Plan. When we are in too much of a hurry many unnecessary problems arise.
