In the New Testament, it is used to describe the outer courts of the temple, the courtyard of a house, or the courtyard of a palace. It can also refer to the area where people gather, such as the courtyard of the high priest where Peter denied Jesus.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern architecture, a courtyard was a central feature of homes and public buildings. It served as a place for social gatherings, domestic activities, and sometimes religious ceremonies. In the context of the Jewish temple, the courtyard was a significant area where worshippers gathered, and it was divided into different sections, including the Court of the Gentiles and the Court of Women. The courtyard was also a place of judgment and public discourse.<div class="vheading2">HELPS Word-studies</div><p class="discovery"><b>833</b> <i>aulḗ</i> – a building with an <i>interior courtyard</i>; an <i>uncovered</i>, <i>walled</i> area that is enclosed but without a roof; an open-air (interior) courtyard of a mansion or palace.</p><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/discovery.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>of uncertain origin<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a courtyard, a court<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>court (3), courtyard (5), fold (2), house (1), palace (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 833: αὐλή</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">αὐλή</span></span>, <span class="greek2">αὐλῆς</span>, <span class="greek2">ἡ</span> (<span class="greek2">ἄω</span> to blow; hence) properly, <span class="accented">a place open to the air</span> (<span class="greek2">διαπνεόμενος</span> <span class="greek2">τόπος</span> <span class="greek2">αὐλή</span> <span class="greek2">λέγεται</span>, <span class="abbreviation">Athen.</span> 5, 15, p. 189 b.); <p><span class="textheading">1.</span> among the Greeks in <span class="abbreviation">Homer</span>s time <span class="accented">an uncovered space around the house, enclosed by a wall, in which the stables stood</span> (<span class="abbreviation">Homer</span>, Odyssey 9, 185; Iliad 4, 433); hence, among the Orientals that <span class="accented">roofless enclosure in the open country in which flocks were herded at night, a sheepfold</span>: <a href="/interlinear/john/10-1.htm">John 10:1, 16</a>. <p><span class="textheading">2.</span> <span class="accented">the uncovered court-yard of the house,</span> Hebrew <span class="hebrew">חָצֵר</span>, the <span class="manuref">Sept.</span> <span class="greek2">αὐλή</span>, <span class="manuref">Vulg.</span><span class="latin">atrium</span>.
