Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g4745 Greek: stoa

Porch:

"a portico," is used

(a) of the "porches" at the pool of Bethesda, Jhn 5:2;

(b) of the covered colonnade in the Temple, called Solomon's "porch," Jhn 10:23; Act 3:11; 5:12 a portico on the eastern side of the temple; this and the other "porches" existent in the time of Christ were almost certainly due to Herod's restoration.

akin to pule, "a gate" (Eng., "pylon"), is used of "a doorway, porch or vestibule" of a house or palace, Mat 26:71. In the parallel passage Mar 14:68, No. 3 is used, and pulon doubtless stands in Matt. 26 for proaulion.
See GATE, No. 2.

Porch:

"the exterior court" or "vestibule," between the door and the street, in the houses of well-to-do folk, Mar 14:68, "porch" (RV marg., "forecourt").
