# he is near, at the very gates
Jesus is speaking about himself in the third person and using the imagery of a king or important official getting close to the gates of a walled city. This metaphor means the time for Jesus to come is soon. Alternate translation: "I am near and will soon appear" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
