Challah Cover - Jerusalem gate#id: FCH53 |
 |  |  | | Gates of Jerusalem were closed on Shabbat as Nehemiah 13:19 says:
"And it cometh to pass, when the gates of Jerusalem have been dark before the sabbath, that I speak, and the doors are shut, and I say, that they do not open them till after the sabbath; and of my servants I have stationed at the gates; there doth not come in a burden on the sabbath-day."
