'Court' in the Bible

Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;

But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end.

Now Peter was sitting without in the court: and a maid came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.
