The same practice obtained among other Eastern nation. The Ottoman court, it is well known, derived its appellation of the {Porte}, from the distribution of justice and the dispatch of public business at its gates. And the square tower which forms the principal entrance to the {Alhamra}, or red palace of the Moorish kings of Grenada, retains to this day the appellation of the {Gate of Judgment}, from it having been the place where justice was at one period summarily administered.</p><div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18</a> • <a href="/niv/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 NIV</a> • <a href="/nlt/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 NLT</a> • <a href="/esv/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 ESV</a> • <a href="/nasb/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 NASB</a> • <a href="/kjv/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 KJV</a> • <a href="//bibleapps.com/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 Bible Apps</a> • <a href="//bibliaparalela.com/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 Biblia Paralela</a> • <a href="//holybible.com.cn/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 Chinese Bible</a> • <a href="//saintebible.com/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 French Bible</a> • <a href="//bibeltext.com/deuteronomy/16-18.htm">Deuteronomy 16:18 German Bible</a> • <a href="/">Bible Hub</a><br /></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="../deuteronomy/16-17.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Deuteronomy 16:17"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Deuteronomy 16:17" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="../deuteronomy/16-19.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Deuteronomy 16:19"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Deuteronomy 16:19" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div> <div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
