'Outer court' in the Bible
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.
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.
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."
