Ezekiel 48:31 Summary
[Ezekiel 48:31 tells us that the gates of the city will be named after the tribes of Israel, which shows that God is faithful to His people and wants to be in relationship with them, just like He was with the Israelites in the Old Testament (Exodus 6:7). The naming of the gates after the tribes of Israel also reminds us that we are all part of a larger family, the family of God, and that we should strive to live in unity and harmony with one another, as seen in John 17:21-23. This verse can encourage us to trust in God's plan and promises, just like the Israelites did, and to remain faithful to Him, even when things seem uncertain or challenging (Psalm 119:105).]
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are the gates of the city named after the tribes of Israel in Ezekiel 48:31?
The gates are named after the tribes of Israel to signify the unity and diversity of God's people, as seen in Revelation 21:12, where the New Jerusalem has twelve gates, each named after one of the tribes of Israel.
What is the significance of the specific tribes mentioned in Ezekiel 48:31?
The tribes of Reuben, Judah, and Levi are mentioned in Ezekiel 48:31, possibly because they represent the firstborn, the kingly tribe, and the priestly tribe, respectively, as seen in Genesis 49:3-7 and Exodus 32:26-28.
How does Ezekiel 48:31 relate to the concept of the New Jerusalem in Revelation 21?
Ezekiel 48:31 provides a foreshadowing of the New Jerusalem, where the gates are also named after the tribes of Israel, emphasizing the continuity and fulfillment of God's plan in the Old and New Testaments, as seen in Revelation 21:12-14 and Ezekiel 48:1-35.
What does the naming of the gates after the tribes of Israel teach us about God's character?
The naming of the gates after the tribes of Israel teaches us about God's faithfulness to His people and His desire to be in relationship with them, as seen in Exodus 6:7 and Jeremiah 31:33, where God promises to be their God and they will be His people.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Ezekiel 48:31

Trapp's Commentary on Ezekiel 48:31
Ezekiel 48:31 And the gates of the city [shall be] after the names of the tribes of Israel: three gates northward; one gate of Reuben, one gate of Judah, one gate of Levi.Ver. 31. And the gates of the city.] Through which all the Israel of God, both Jews and Gentiles from all parts, qua data porta, ruunt, do enter into the Church of Christ, flowing and flocking thereto, as waters do to the sea, and as the doves to their windows. Three gates northward.] Twelve in all; the reason whereof, see in the note on Revelation 21:13. One gate of Levi.] Who, though he had no lot in the land, yet he had a gate into the city, as Vatablus here noteth.
