Solomon's Porch - (John 10:23; Acts 3:11; 5:12), was a colonnade, or cloister probably, on the eastern side of the temple; not to be confused with the Royal Portico which was on the southern side of the temple in the area currently occupied by Al Aqsa Mosque. It is not mentioned in connection with the first temple, but Josephus mentions a porch, so called, in Herod's Temple.
