I would like to explore these 2 verses in Revelation and possibly connect it to the 1st century Temple/Sanctuary of Jerusalem.
First, let's examine the meaning of the Court and where it is used in the NT
833. aulefrom the same as 109;
a yard (as open to the wind); by implication, a mansion:--court, (sheep-)fold, hall, palace,
the uncovered courtyard of the house. In the O.T. particularly of the courts of the tabernacle and of the temple in Jerusalem. The dwellings of the higher classes usually had two, one exterior, between the door and the street; the other interior, surrounded by the buildings of the dwelling itself. The latter is mentioned Matthew 26:69.
Revelation 11:
1 And was given to me a reed like-as rod/staff saying
"rise! and measure! the Sanctuary of the God and the Altar<2379> and those worshiping in it
2 and the Court/fold <833>outside of the Sanctuary<3485> be Casting-Out!<1544> out-side<1854>,
and no it thou should be measuring,
That it was given to the nations
and the holy City they shall be treading 42 months
#833 is mentioned in 12 verses, and only in the 4 Gospels and 1 time in Revelation.
It is shown where the trial of our Lord Jesus was held after His arrest in the garden.
Caiphas the High Priest and Peter are mentioned
Matthew 26:3
Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the Court/Palace<833> of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
Mark 15:16
And the soldiers led him away into the Court/Palace<833>, called Praetorium;
and they call together the whole band
John 18:15
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest,
and went in with Jesus into the Court/Palace<833> of the high priest.
Luke 22:55
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the Court/Palace<833> and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
