On the west side
The west side of the city is significant in biblical symbolism, often representing the direction of the setting sun and the end of a day. In the context of Ezekiel's vision, the west side of the city is part of the new, restored Jerusalem, symbolizing completion and fulfillment of God's promises. The west side's inclusion in the city's design reflects the comprehensive nature of God's plan, encompassing all directions and aspects of life.

which is 4,500 cubits long
The measurement of 4,500 cubits indicates precision and order in God's design. A cubit, an ancient unit of length, is approximately 18 inches or 45 centimeters. The specific measurement underscores the meticulous nature of God's plans for His people. It reflects the divine order and the perfect symmetry of the New Jerusalem, as described in Ezekiel's vision, symbolizing God's perfect and unchanging nature.

there will be three gates
The presence of three gates on each side of the city is symbolic of access and inclusion. In biblical numerology, the number three often represents completeness and divine perfection. The three gates on the west side signify the openness of God's kingdom to all tribes of Israel, and by extension, to all nations. It is a reminder of the Trinity and the completeness found in God's presence.

the gate of Gad
Gad, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, was known for its warriors and strength. The inclusion of the gate of Gad signifies the strength and protection that God provides to His people. It is a reminder of the spiritual warfare that believers face and the assurance of victory through God's power. Historically, Gad settled east of the Jordan River, and their inclusion in the gates of the New Jerusalem signifies unity and restoration.

the gate of Asher
Asher, another tribe of Israel, was blessed with prosperity and abundance. The gate of Asher symbolizes the blessings and provision that come from God. It reflects the promise of spiritual abundance and the richness of life in God's presence. Asher's territory was fertile and productive, and this gate serves as a reminder of the spiritual fruitfulness that believers are called to exhibit.

and the gate of Naphtali
Naphtali, known for its swiftness and agility, represents freedom and deliverance. The gate of Naphtali signifies the liberation and joy found in God's kingdom. It is a reminder of the freedom from sin and the joy of salvation. Naphtali's land was in the northern part of Israel, and its inclusion in the gates of the New Jerusalem highlights the gathering of all God's people from every corner of the earth.
