This represented the state of the Old-Testament church: it was a garden enclosed the worshippers were then confined to a little compass. But the enclosure being of curtains only intimated that the confinement of the church in one particular nation was not to be perpetual. The dispensation itself was a tabernacle-dispensation, movable and mutable, and in due time to be taken down and folded up, when the place of the tent should be enlarged and its cords lengthened, to make room for the Gentile world, as is foretold, Isa 54:2<\/span>; Isa 54:3<\/span>. The church here on earth is but the court of God’s house, and happy they that tread these courts and flourish in them; but through these courts we are passing to the holy place above. Blessed are those that dwell in that house<\/I> of God: they well be still praising him.<\/I> The enclosing of a court before the tabernacle teaches us a gradual approach to God. The priests that ministered must pass through the holy court, before they entered the holy house. Thus before solemn ordinances there ought to be the separated and enclosed court of a solemn preparation, in which we must wash our hands, and so draw near with a true heart.<\/P> <\/p>\n Verses 9-20:<\/strong><\/p>\n The final component of the tabernacle complex was the curtain wall of the outer courtyard. <\/strong>Instructions for this wall are recorded in Ex 27:9-19.<\/p>\n Verse 10: “fillets,” chashuqim <\/strong>“fastenings” or connecting rods, see Ex 27:10.<\/p>\n Verse 17 is in addition to the earlier instructions. It corresponds to Ex 36:37, 38.<\/p>\n “Filleted with silver,” means “connected with silver rods,” see Ex 27:17.<\/p>\n The pattern specified that the height of the courtyard wall was to be exactly five cubits, <\/strong>approximately seven and a half feet. The linen curtains were to be woven to this exact dimension.<\/p>\n (9-20) The construction of the court follows upon that of the furniture which it contained. The passage runs parallel with Exo. 27:9-19<\/span>.<\/p>\n The Making of the Court ( Exo 38:9-17<\/strong><\/span><\/strong> ). <\/p>\n Exo 38:9-17<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n ‘And he made the court: for the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen, a hundred cubits; their pillars were twenty, and their sockets twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars and their connecting-rods were of silver. And for the north side a hundred cubits, their pillars twenty, and their sockets twenty, of bronze; the hooks of the pillars, and their connecting-rods, of silver. And for the west side were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars, and their connecting-rods, of silver. And for the east side eastward fifty cubits. The hangings for the one side of the entrance were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three; and so for the other side: on this hand and that hand by the gate of the court were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen. And the sockets for the pillars were of bronze; the hooks of the pillars, and their connecting-rods, of silver; and the overlaying of their capitals, of silver; and all the pillars of the court were connected with silver.’ <\/p>\n For the court see on Exo 27:9-15<\/span>. Here however is added that the capitals were overlaid with silver. <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/strong> The Great EnclosuRev. 9. And he made the court; on the south side southward the hangings of the court were of fine twined linen,<\/strong> curtains of byssus, an hundred cubits;<\/strong> <\/p>\n v. 10. their pillars were twenty, and their brazen sockets twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets were of silver. <\/strong> While the posts themselves were of bronze, the hooks and the connecting rods from which the curtains were suspended were of silver. <\/p>\n v. 11. And for the north side the hangings were an hundred cubits, their pillars were twenty, and their sockets of brass twenty; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver. <\/p>\n v. 12. And for the west side,<\/strong> in the rear of the Tabernacle, were hangings of fifty cubits, their pillars ten, and their sockets ten; the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver. <\/p>\n v. 13. And for the east side eastward fifty cubits. <\/p>\n v. 14. The hangings of the one side of the gate were fifteen cubits; their pillars three, and their sockets three. <\/p>\n v. 15. And for the other side of the court gate,<\/strong> the large entrance to the sacred enclosure, on this hand and that hand, were hangings of fifteen cubits; their pillars three and their sockets three. <\/strong> This section of the enclosure toward the east was just like the curtains on the north, south, and west sides. <\/p>\n v. 16. All the hangings of the court round about were of fine twined linen. <\/p>\n v. 17. And the sockets for the pillars,<\/strong> the bases, were of brass, the hooks of the pillars and their fillets of silver, and the overlaying of their chapiters,<\/strong> the capitals of the posts only, of silver; and all the pillars of the court were filleted with silver,<\/strong> their connecting rods were made of silver. <\/p>\n v. 18. And the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework,<\/strong> woven in geometrical figures like the screen before the Holy Place, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen; and twenty cubits was the length<\/strong> of this curtain, for that was the width of the gate, and the height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to,<\/strong> agreeing with, the hangings of the court. <\/p>\n v. 19. And their pillars were four and their sockets of brass four; their hooks of silver and the overlaying of their chapiters and their fillets of silver. <\/p>\n v. 20. And all the pins of the Tabernacle and of the court round about were of brass,<\/strong> the pegs for holding the guy-ropes. Cf Exo 27:9-19<\/span>. <\/p>\n By the court of the tabernacle we may suppose is meant the church of the Lord Jesus upon earth. The extent of it a hundred cubits was about sixty-one yards. Son 4:12<\/span> . Happy they that enter into it. Psa 84:10<\/span>Psa 84:10<\/span> .

He made the court The inner utensils of the court being thus completed, they proceeded to make the court itself, which was a large oblong square, fenced in with thick, well-wrought hangings; the size, dimensions, and workmanship of each side whereof have been described in Exo 27:9-19. This court represented the state of the Old Testament church; it was a garden enclosed; the worshippers were then confined to a little compass. But the enclosure being of curtains only, intimated that that confinement of the church to one particular nation was not to be perpetual. The dispensation itself was a tabernacle dispensation, moveable and mutable, and in due time to be taken down and folded up, when the place of the tent should be enlarged, and its cords lengthened, to make room for the Gentile world.<\/p>\n And he made the court: on the south side southward the hangings of the court [were of] fine twined linen, a hundred cubits: 9 20 (Exo 27:9-19).
