The courtyard is a significant element in the architectural and spiritual landscape of ancient Israelite worship, as described in various passages of the Bible. Old Testament Context The concept of the courtyard is prominently featured in the descriptions of the Tabernacle and the Temple. In the wilderness, the Israelites constructed the Tabernacle as a portable dwelling place for God. The courtyard of the Tabernacle was a designated area surrounding the sacred tent, as detailed in <a href="/exodus/27-9.htm">Exodus 27:9-19</a>. The Berean Standard Bible describes the courtyard as being 100 cubits long and 50 cubits wide, enclosed by curtains of fine twisted linen, with pillars and bronze bases. The courtyard served as a transitional space between the secular and the sacred, where the Israelites could bring their offerings and sacrifices. It was here that the altar of burnt offering was located, as well as the bronze basin for ceremonial washing (<a href="/exodus/30-18.htm">Exodus 30:18</a>). The courtyard was accessible to all Israelites, symbolizing a communal approach to worship and sacrifice. In the construction of Solomon's Temple, the courtyard continued to play a vital role. <a href="/bsb/1_kings/6.htm">1 Kings 6-7</a> and <a href="/bsb/2_chronicles/4.htm">2 Chronicles 4</a> provide detailed accounts of the Temple's design, including the inner and outer courtyards. The outer courtyard was accessible to the general populace, while the inner courtyard was reserved for priests and Levites, reflecting a hierarchy in worship practices. New Testament Context In the New Testament, courtyards are mentioned in the context of the Second Temple, particularly in the Gospels. The Temple in Jerusalem had several courtyards, including the Court of the Gentiles, the Court of Women, and the Court of Israel. These areas facilitated different levels of access for worshippers, with the Court of the Gentiles being the most inclusive, allowing non-Jews to come and pray. The cleansing of the Temple by Jesus, as recorded in <a href="/matthew/21-12.htm">Matthew 21:12-13</a> , took place in the Temple's courtyard. Jesus drove out the money changers and merchants, declaring, "My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a den of robbers." This act underscored the importance of the courtyard as a place of genuine worship and prayer, free from commercial exploitation. Symbolic Significance The courtyard holds rich symbolic meaning in biblical theology. It represents a space of preparation and purification, where worshippers transition from the ordinary to the divine presence. The physical separation of the courtyard from the inner sanctum of the Tabernacle or Temple mirrors the spiritual journey of drawing closer to God. Moreover, the courtyard's accessibility to all Israelites, and later to Gentiles in the Second Temple, highlights the inclusive nature of God's covenant with His people. It serves as a reminder of the communal aspect of worship and the call to holiness for all who approach the divine presence. In summary, the courtyard in biblical times was not merely an architectural feature but a vital component of Israelite worship, reflecting both the communal and hierarchical aspects of approaching God. Its presence in both the Tabernacle and Temple underscores its enduring significance in the spiritual life of God's people.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(n.)
