Commentary on Exodus 27:16
The gate itself: 20 cubits of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen with needlework—matching the tabernacle's entrance and veil but without cherubim. The colorful, beautiful gate stands out from the plain white courtyard walls, drawing eyes and feet to the entrance. Christ, our Gate, displays heaven (blue), royalty (purple), sacrifice (scarlet), and righteousness (linen). His beauty attracts; His sacrifice enables entry. The needlework suggests the intricate providence weaving His life.
