The Greek word for "city" is "&#960;&#972;&#955;&#953;&#962;" (polis), which signifies a structured and organized community. In the context of Revelation, it symbolizes the ultimate dwelling place of God with His people, a place of divine order and eternal peace. Historically, cities were centers of culture, governance, and protection, and the New Jerusalem represents the culmination of God's redemptive plan, where His presence is fully realized among His people.<p><b>had a great and high wall</b><br />The "great and high wall" signifies security and separation from all that is unholy. In ancient times, city walls were essential for protection against enemies. The Greek word for "wall" is "&#964;&#949;&#8150;&#967;&#959;&#962;" (teichos), emphasizing strength and fortification. Spiritually, this wall represents the impenetrable protection of God over His people, ensuring that nothing impure can enter. It also symbolizes the distinction between the holy and the profane, underscoring the purity and sanctity of the New Jerusalem.<p><b>with twelve gates</b><br />The number twelve is significant in biblical numerology, often representing completeness and divine authority. The "twelve gates" symbolize access and entry into the presence of God. Each gate provides a way for the redeemed to enter the city, reflecting the inclusivity of God's salvation plan. The gates also remind us of the twelve tribes of Israel, indicating continuity between the Old and New Covenants and the fulfillment of God's promises to His people.<p><b>inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel</b><br />The inscription of the "names of the twelve tribes of Israel" on the gates highlights the enduring covenant between God and His chosen people. The Greek word for "inscribed" is "&#7952;&#960;&#953;&#947;&#949;&#947;&#961;&#945;&#956;&#956;&#941;&#957;&#945;" (epigegrammena), suggesting permanence and honor. This inscription signifies the fulfillment of God's promises to Israel and the integral role of the tribes in His redemptive history. It also serves as a reminder of the faithfulness of God to His covenant and the unity of all believers, both Jew and Gentile, in the New Jerusalem. The historical context of the twelve tribes, each representing a distinct part of Israel's identity, underscores the diversity and unity within the body of Christ.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/revelation/21.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(12, 13) <span class= "bld">And had</span> <span class= "bld">a wall great and high . . .</span>--Or, better (for the construction is continued), <span class= "ital">Having a wall great and high, and having twelve gate-towers, and at the gate-towers twelve angels, and names inscribed which are </span>(<span class= "ital">names</span>)<span class= "ital"> of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel: from the sun-rising </span>(<span class= "ital">i.e., </span>facing east) <span class= "ital">three gate-towers; from the north three gate-towers, from the south three gate-towers; from the sun-setting three gate-towers.</span> On this arrangement of gates Numbers 2, Ezekiel 48, and Revelation 7 should be compared.

There is perhaps allusion in the present passage to this wilderness encampment, and to the re-adjustment of the order of the tribes in Ezekiel (Ezekiel 48); but there is more than order here: the gates lie open to all quarters; there is no refusal of admission to any people.
