This Great Sanhedrin of Halachah lasted until 66 CE〕 or Court of the Priests〔Mishnah Yoma ed. Isidore Epstein 1989 "(9) Between the Court of the Israelites and the Court of the Priests. (10) It is the platform of the Lévites, on which they stood, when singing or teaching, and from which the priests pronounced the benediction, V. Mid. II, 6."〕〔Ze'ev W. Falk ''Introduction to Jewish Law of the Second Commonwealth'' 1972 page 57 "... and we hear of their concurrent activity designed to protect the lineage : "The court of the priests would collect for a virgin four ... "we are the agents of the court and you are our agent and the agent of the court" (Mishnah Yoma 1 5)."〕〔''Encyclopedia Talmudica'' Volume 4 - Page 158 Yad Ha-Rav Herzog Institute Staff - 1991 "Court of the Priests," n. 2. 30."〕〔Francis Roubiliac Conder, Claude Reignier Conder ''A handbook to the Bible'' 1879 "The present plan places the Court of the Priests in such a situation that none of the numerous cisterns of the Haram area come within its boundaries.

Yoma 1)〕〔Jacob Neusner ''Judaism'' Handbuch der Orientalistik: Der Nahe und Mittlere Osten. 1995 "From this vantage one could see into the Court of the Priests, in which stood the Altar and the House of Slaughter."〕 ("house of judgement of the priests" Hebrew: בית דין של כהנים) was the court of Jewish law, composed of twenty-three senior priests that would oversee the day-to-day operation of the Temple in Jerusalem, including the sacrifices and offerings, the verification of Aaronic lineage, and the safeguarding of the vessels used in the Temple. The term ''Beth Din shel kohanim'' is mentioned by name only twice in Tannaitic and once in Amoraic literature,〔Tropper "Beth Din Shel Kohanim" in Jewish quarterly review: Volume 63 1972 The Beth din shel kohanim is mentioned by name only twice in Tannaitic and once in Amoraic literature, 1. A mishnah in Ketubot l relates that the Bet Din shel Kohanim demanded a ketuba of 400 ..."〕 and has caused confusion regarding its meaning.〔Sigalit Ben-Zion ''A Roadmap to the Heavens: An Anthropological Study of Hegemony among Priests, Sages and Laymen'' 2009 Page 76 "... a court composed of Priests which established jurisdiction in civil matters.54 The court of the Priests would collect ... 54 The term "Beit Din Shel Kohanim" is rarely used in rabbinic sources and has caused confusion regarding its meaning (for a review of the literature see Tropper 1972/3:208, n〕 The ''Beth din'' of the priests functioned on behalf and support of the Sanhedrin (Hebrew: סַנְהֶדְרִין),〔sifri to Numbers Parshat Korach on the verse "ושמרו את משמרת הקדש ואת משמרת המזבח"〕 and performed its duties in the eleven Ammoth located between the western wall of the Holy of Holies structure and the western wall of the azarah (temple courtyard). This area was also known in Hebrew as ''achurei Beth HaKaporeth'' ("behind the Holy of Holies").〔The Torah anthology Jacob Culi, Isaac ben Moses Magriso, Zvi Faier - 1987 "This last location was known as Achurei Beth HaKaporeth ("behind the Holy of Holies").
