everything becomes unnatural and forced
Even here the Kidron Valley had to be
crossed. But It was certainly easier there,
where IL was not so deep, as lower down
whore II was not only deeper but also
narrower and sleeper. Sepp admits that
Jesus went by the southerly path but did
not go as far as the Garden of Geth-
semane, but turned of westward into the
valley TO shorten the route northerly
short cut would have led by the so-called
tomb OF Absalom into the valley TO the
lower bridge But this road is very steep,
much sleeper than that which led to the
Golden Gate. In fact, in order 10 ride
to the western suburb comfortably on the
ass. so as to pass through Ophel. the
route had TO be followed further in the
valley, as far as the Pool Of Sloan. and
then an ascent of three hundred feet to
the threshold Of the Hulda Gate had to
be made. Besides the road to the Golden
Gate was only one-hfth as long as that
to the other gate.
Therefore there can be no doubt that
Jesus entered by the eastern gate. All
subsequent historical notices agree with
this idea.
That this eastern gate was partially de-
stroyed by the Romans is proved by the
discovery OF the ruins of the lower sec
tion. II is possible that this gate was
partially restored by Hadrian In the sec
ond century. but not probable This en-
perors architectural achievements were

And. too. II must be remembered that
the path pursued by Jesus did not lie far
from Bethphage. which was on the east
ern declivity OF the Mount Of Olives so
II was impossible for Jesus 10 have taken
the southern path. And Il Is just as Ger
tain that Jesus did go by the middle path
which passed directly over the ridge of
the Mount OF Olives.
AS you come down from the mountain
you are directly IN front OF the Golden
Gate. This would have been the case no
matter by which path he had come from
Bethany. II was the nearest gate Of the
city and its threshold was only about
100 feet above the road along the garden
OF Gethsemane and the bridge. and but
725 feet away in an air line. Here. too.
the valley was at its widest; here the
valley running from the northern side OF
the city opened into the valley Of Kid
ron. broadening the whole valley. As n
result OF this the path had 10 run along
a curved line

but II was not a double. only a single
gate, like all the other city gates. After
Jesus had ridden through this gate and
approached the temple gate he had TO
get down from the ass: nor would he
have been permitted TO ride through the
Hulda gate. This caused a slight delay.

"HE question ~ the particular gate
through which Jesus entered Jeru-
Ellem that first Palm Sunday with
the people shouting around him
may seem superluous FOR common
tradition has named tho Golden Gate.
But the Kaiser's visit 20 Jerusalem IN the
spring OF last wear brought up another
version. The Hulda Gate was mentioned
thea. ard it j. high time 20 look into this
question and determine the truth.
The Hulda Gate is the name that the
Jews of to-day give 20 tho old temple gate
that lies AZ the foundation of the mosque
of Aksa: but Il IS also known as the
double gate. Josephus tells Us that there
were gates or the south side OF the tenn
pie. and the Talmud says there were two
Hulda gates on the south. To-day there
are two gates IN the southern wall. some
225 feet apart.
This gate has been called the mole gate.
A mols works into the earth. travels
underground and then comes up. So does
this gate. IN Solomon's time Il was not
rooted over. but later when Herod en-
closed the royal grounds IN the temple

the inner court. Al present the gates are
walled up on the outside Because the
western gate was double the name Hulda

That Jesus and his disciples often pass

certain, but that he entered there on
Palm sunday is absolutely untenable. Not
one OF the many pilgrims before and after
the crusades mentions this as the gate
through which Christ entered Jerusalem
Only of late has this idea been suggested
The Golden Gate is To be found in the
eastern wall OF the present haram. or
court of the Mosque Of Aksa. The lower
portion belongs TO the period OF the toni
pie. while the upper part Is Byzantine
The top Is Moslem. This gate was made
into a fortified tower Like the other
temple gates It had double entrance It
has been built up by a wall for a long
time.
From time immemorial has this been
considered the one through which Jesus
entered and passed 10 the temple Jesus
came from Bethany. whence there are
three paths TO Jerusalem. The southern
most. the modern highroad passes over
the lower ridge between the Mount Of
Offense and the Mount OF Olives proper.
This is the longest route. The second. the
middle path. leads directly over the sum-
mit OF the Mount OF Olives. and then
southerly. The third and northernmost
path also passes over the heights. All
three pass by the present Garden Of Geth-
semane. and there run into single road.
The valley of the Kidron IS then travcrsed
by bridge.
Now. according n Luke. Jesus de-
scended the Mount OF Olives" which could
apply 10 the northernmost or 70 the mid
die road. and besides. He saw the city
aud wept over it," which points 10 the
middle path. BY the southern road little
could be seen of the city. but all the cx-
tensive temple buildings were visible.
The San Francisco call., 1899-12-24

chiefly I'm the city. not in the temple. The
real restoration OF these gates only took
place later.
The Hulda Gate was rebuilt by Justin
ian in the sixth century, as we know from
an inscription on stone used for IT. The
gateway formed the foundation for his
Church of st. Mary. AS to the Golden
Gate. in the year 562. when Justinian died,
il had not been restored. for a little later
between $40 and 600. Antonius Martyr saw
1t still in ruins. He says: From Geth-
semane we assembled many steps to the
gate of Jerusalem. This gate Is connected
with that once beautiful gate OF the tenn
ple whose threshold and posts still stand"
