It is said that in the future, the resurrection will begin from the Golden Gate, so the Jews hope to be buried as close to the Golden Gate as possible to resurrect earlier. The Arabs were buried there to prevent the return of Jesus, which would mean the end of the world.
5 stars The oldest gate on the old city wall, leading directly to the Temple Mount. But it was sealed during the Ottoman Turkish era because it was believed that the Messiah would enter Jerusalem through this gate.
4 stars Gate of Mercy, or Mercy Gate. This door is closed. As the introduction says, it is to prevent the Messiah from entering through this door.
