Jerusalem: Ancient Gates, Future Glory #6: Herod’s Gate
Herod’s Gate dates back to the time of Herod the Great. The historical site of many attacks, it represents today’s ongoing spiritual battles. Guests include Tamar Hayardeni and our friend Rosemary Schindler, a lover of Israel and the Jewish people.
Herods' Gate - Jerusalem Gates
Herod's gate is one of the newest gate among Jerusalem Gates. During the build up of the wall of Jerusalem by the Suleiman the Magnificent, there was a small wicket gate situated in front of the current gate, which was rarely opened. In year 1875, in order to provide a passageway from the Muslin quarter to the new constructed neighborhoods at the northern side of the old city, the Ottoman made a breach in the northern part of the walls and closed the original gate.
The Herods' gate is named after Herod the Great. That is because in the Crusaders' period a church was built near the gate in the belief that at the time of the Crucifixion of Jesus, Herod Antipas's house was situated at that spot. In its place today stands the church of Dir Al Ads.

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered liscenced tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this calling in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, glide over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and see the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.

Jerusalem's City Walls
Jerusalem's Old City walls are the legacy of the Ottoman Emperor Suleiman de Magnificent. 5 Main gates were built (Jaffa, Damascus, Herods, St Stephen's and Zion) and the Golden Gate on the southern site of Temple Mount.
The most impressive gate is the Damascus Gate.
The Ramparts offer great views of the city and are dated from the 14th century.
The Western Wall is a 2000 year old western retaining wall of the Temple Mount. For centuries Jews have considered this the holiest site in Jerusalem.
The wall became a place of pilgrimage during the Ottoman period and Jews would come to mourn and lament the destruction of the temple. That is why the site is also known as the wailing wall. The plaza is a popular site for bar mitzvahs, which are usually held on Shabbat.
