(Rev 21:25). The gates are ever open to receive new offerings and converts (Isa 26:2; Act 14:27; Rev 3:8). In time of peace the gates of a city are open: so, under the Prince of peace, there shall be no need of barring gates against invaders. forces--riches. be brought--as willing captives to the truth; or, if not willingly, be bought by judgments to submit to Israel (Isa 60:12, Isa 60:14). GESENIUS explains it, "may come escorted by a retinue."
