'Court' in the Bible

Then the Spirit brought me to the entrance of the court. As I watched, all of a sudden, there was a hole in the wall!

Then he brought me to the inner court of the LORD's Temple. There, at the entrance to the LORD's Temple, between the porch and the altar, were 25 men, with their backs toward the LORD's Temple and facing the east, prostrating themselves to the sun.

Now the cherubim were standing on the south side of the entrance to the Temple, when the man entered and a cloud filled the inner court.

The glory of the LORD rose above the cherub and moved to the threshold of the Temple. A cloud filled the Temple and the court was filled with the brilliance of the LORD's glory.

The sound of the wings of the cherubim, reminiscent of the voice of the Sovereign God when he speaks, could be heard as far as the outer court.

Next, he brought me into the outer court, where chambers and a paved area had been constructed all around the courtyard, with 30 chambers facing the pavement.

He also measured the width from the front lower gate to the front of the exterior inner court at 100 cubits to the east and to the north.

The inner court contained a south-facing gate measuring 100 cubits from gate to gate toward the south.

He measured the court in the form of a square at 100 cubits long and 100 cubits wide. The altar stood in front of the Temple.

Opposite the 20 cubits wide inner court, and opposite the paved area that comprised the outer court, there were three stories of galleries that faced each other.

The outer wall by the side of the chambers toward the outer court and facing the chambers was 50 cubits long.

While the chambers in the outer court were 50 cubits in length, the chambers facing the Temple were 100 cubits long.

Below these chambers, as one might enter from the outer court, was the east side entrance.

There were chambers built into the thick part of the wall of the court facing the east; that is, facing the separate area toward the front of the building,

When the priest enters, they will not enter the outer court from the sanctuary without having removed their garments worn during their time of ministry, because they are holy. They will put on different clothes, and then they will approach the area reserved for the people."

Whenever they enter at the gates of the inner court, they are to be clothed with linen garments. They are not to wear wool when they are ministering within the gates of the inner courtyard or in the Temple.

On the day that he returns to the sanctuary's inner court to minister, he is to offer his own sin offering," declares the Lord GOD.

The priest is to place some of the blood from the sin offering on the door posts of the Temple, on the four corners of the ledge around the altar, and on the posts of the gate leading to the inner court.
