A gate is a two-letter combination used to form three letter roots in Hebrew. By reversing the letter order, the sense of the meaning is reversed. It is not the same as an opposite in English.
- 5. For He indeed showed the mode of combination of the letters, each with each, Aleph with all, and all with Aleph. Thus in combining all together in pairs are produced these two hundred and thirty-one gates of knowledge. And from Nothingness did He make something, and all forms of speech and every created thing, and from the empty void He made the solid earth, and from the non-existent He brought forth Life. - Sepher Yetzirah, Chapter 2
I propose that this is not so much of an occult book as a sort of grammar explaining how to form words from letters. So I ignore much of what is said about it and collect the pairs to examine if the theory has merit.
