Where is Fish_Gate in the Bible?

The Fish Gate was a gate in the walls of Jerusalem, located in the northern section of the city's defensive fortifications. During the time of Nehemiah's governorship in the fifth century BC, the sons of Hassenaah rebuilt this gate as part of the restoration of Jerusalem's walls after the exile. The Fish Gate served as both a commercial hub where fish and other goods were traded and as a place of judgment where justice was administered. The prophet Zephaniah also mentioned this gate in his prophecies about Jerusalem, highlighting its importance in the city's spiritual and civic life during the post-exilic period.
