The Temple complex was made up of a square, in a square, in a square. The first square was the Holy of Holies. The second was the sacred area that the gentiles were not allowed to enter, and the last square was the outer courts/court of the gentiles.
Herod increased
the size of those outer courts. BUT IT REMAINED A SQUARE!
The increased
size of the compound after Herod's rebuilding was approximately 600 X
600
feet.
