Although the tabernacle and its court were so magnificent, it was small. It has been pointed out that the court was only one quarter the size of a British football pitch.

Exo 27:9-17 The hangings of fine twined linen provided a screen and marked the boundary of the court of the Tabernacle. The height of the fine twined linen was 5 cubits (c.7.5ft high) (Exo 27:18). Therefore those outside the Tabernacle enclosure would be unable to see what was taking place inside. “Unto you it is given to knowthe mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:” (Mark 4:11).
The faithful Israelite must come to the door of the Tabernacle to bring his offering to the Priest to prepare the way for atonement of his sin.
The pattern for the Tabernacle the LORD revealed to Moses on the Mount looked forward in many ways to the work of the Great High Priest, the Lord Jesus Christ. “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.”(Heb.4:14).
The pillars of the court were located in sockets of brass in the ground (representing sinful Adamic nature) and the hooks and fillets were of silver (representing redemption) Ex.27:10. The purpose of the pillars was to hold up the fine twined linen surrounding the court.
This was symbolic of the age to come when the saints will be clothed in white raiment and serve as kings and priests to our God. (Rev 3:5 ; Rev 5:10),
“And to her(the bride) was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.” (Rev 19:8).
May the day come soon when, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.” (Rev 21:3).

GIVING
I can imagine some of those watching who would have wondered why the poor widow even bothered to put her offering into the temple treasury. When others were putting in hundreds or thousands of dollars, her five cents would barely be noticed. What would her meagre offering buy? Even if she put in the same amount day after day, it would still be an insignificant contribution by the end of the year.
But the widow's offering was one of the most significant offerings ever given. It just so happened that her deed was noticed by Jesus, who pointed it out to his followers, and it was recorded for us in the word of God. We don't know the name of the person who threw in the most that day, we don't know what he did for a job or what the money was spent on, but what we do learn is a powerful lesson in the attitude of giving and sacrifice, from the widow who put in two very small copper coins.
More important to God than the amount we give, is the attitude with which we give. And much more than her generous attitude, we learn of her trust in God to provide for her needs in the coming days. Let's not be afraid of giving, but give generously, knowing that God will supply all our needs, and more, if we put him first.

Mark 13:30 we might wonder when the “generation” started that Jesus spoke of. Actually, in the context the generation has to be those who were alive at the time he was speaking. The “end” in the initial fulfilment was AD 70.
Peter Forbes [Mountsorrel (UK)] Comment added in 2019 Reply to Peter
12:36-37 It is hard to imagine that the religious leaders had not already considered this point. Though clearly they had no explanation. Jesus’ explanation did not fit with their pre-conceived ideas so was dismissed. We must take care not to dismiss ideas simply because of our pre-conceived ideas.

2. And <2532> at the season <2540> he sent <649>(5656) to <4314> the husbandmen <1092> a servant <1401>, that <2443> he might receive <2983>(5632) from <3844> the husbandmen <1092> of <575> the fruit <2590> of the vineyard <290>.
3. And <1161> they caught <2983>(5631) him, and beat <1194>(5656) him <846>, and <2532> sent him away <649>(5656) empty <2756>.
4. And <2532> again <3825> he sent <649>(5656) unto <4314> them <846> another <243> servant <1401>; and at him <2548> they cast stones <3036>(5660), and wounded him in the head <2775>(5656), and <2532> sent him away <649>(5656) shamefully handled <821>(5772).
5. And <2532> again <3825> he sent <649>(5656) another <243>; and him <2548> they killed <615>(5656), and <2532> many <4183> others <243>; <3303> beating some <1194>(5723), and <1161> killing some <615>(5723).
6. Having <2192>(5723) yet <2089> therefore <3767> one <1520> son <5207>, his <848> wellbeloved <27>, he sent <649>(5656) him <846> also <2532> last <2078> unto <4314> them <846>, saying <3004>(5723), <3754> They will reverence <1788>(5691) my <3450> son <5207>.
7. But <1161> those <1565> husbandmen <1092> said <2036>(5627) among <4314> themselves <1438>, This <3754> <3778> is <2076>(5748) the heir <2818>; come <1205>(5773), let us kill <615>(5725) him <846>, and <2532> the inheritance <2817> shall be <2071>(5704) ours <2257>.
8. And <2532> they took <2983>(5631) him <846>, and killed <615>(5656) him, and <2532> cast <1544>(5627) him out of <1854> the vineyard <290>.
9. What <5101> shall <4160> <0> therefore <3767> the lord <2962> of the vineyard <290> do <4160>(5692)? he will come <2064>(5695) and <2532> destroy <622>(5692) the husbandmen <1092>, and <2532> will give <1325>(5692) the vineyard <290> unto others <243>.
10. And have ye <314> <0> not <3761> read <314>(5627) this <5026> scripture <1124>; The stone <3037> which <3739> the builders <3618>(5723) rejected <593>(5656) is <3778> <1096>(5675) become <1519> the head <2776> of the corner <1137>:

12. And <2532> they sought <2212>(5707) to lay hold <2902>(5658) on him <846>, but <2532> feared <5399>(5675) the people <3793>: for <1063> they knew <1097>(5627) that <3754> he had spoken <2036>(5627) the parable <3850> against <4314> them <846>: and <2532> they left <863>(5631) him <846>, and went their way <565>(5627).
13. And <2532> they send <649>(5719) unto <4314> him <846> certain <5100> of the Pharisees <5330> and <2532> of the Herodians <2265>, to <2443> catch <64>(5661) him <846> in his words <3056>.
14. And <1161> when they were come <2064>(5631), they say <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, Master <1320>, we know <1492>(5758) that <3754> thou art <1488>(5748) true <227>, and <2532> <4671> carest <3756> <3199>(5719) for <4012> no man <3762>: for <1063> thou regardest <991>(5719) not <3756> the person <1519> <4383> of men <444>, but <235> teachest <1321>(5719) the way <3598> of God <2316> in <1909> truth <225>: Is it lawful <1832>(5748) to give <1325>(5629) tribute <2778> to Caesar <2541>, or <2228> not <3756>?
15. Shall we give <1325>(5632), or <2228> shall we not <3361> give <1325>(5632)? But <1161> he, knowing <1492>(5761) their <846> hypocrisy <5272>, said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, Why <5101> tempt ye <3985>(5719) me <3165>? bring <5342>(5720) me <3427> a penny <1220>, that <2443> I may see <1492>(5632) it.
16. And <1161> they brought <5342>(5656) it. And <2532> he saith <3004>(5719) unto them <846>, Whose <5101> is this <3778> image <1504> and <2532> superscription <1923>? And <1161> they said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, Caesar's <2541>.
17. And <2532> Jesus <2424> answering <611>(5679) said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, Render <591>(5628) to Caesar <2541> the things that are <3588> Caesar's <2541>, and <2532> to God <2316> the things that are <3588> God's <2316>. And <2532> they marvelled <2296>(5656) at <1909> him <846>.
18. Then <2532> come <2064>(5736) unto <4314> him <846> the Sadducees <4523>, which <3748> say <3004>(5719) there is <1511>(5750) no <3361> resurrection <386>; and <2532> they asked <1905>(5656) him <846>, saying <3004>(5723),
19. Master <1320>, Moses <3475> wrote <1125>(5656) unto us <2254>, If <3754> <1437> a man's <5100> brother <80> die <599>(5632), and <2532> leave <2641>(5632) his wife <1135> behind him, and <2532> leave <863>(5632) no <3361> children <5043>, that <2443> his <846> brother <80> should take <2983>(5632) his <846> wife <1135>, and <2532> raise up <1817>(5661) seed <4690> unto his <848> brother <80>.
20. Now there were <2258>(5713) seven <2033> brethren <80>: and <2532> the first <4413> took <2983>(5627) a wife <1135>, and <2532> dying <599>(5723) left <863>(5656) no <3756> seed <4690>.
21. And <2532> the second <1208> took <2983>(5627) her <846>, and <2532> died <599>(5627), <2532> neither <3761> left <863>(5656) he <846> any seed <4690>: and <2532> the third <5154> likewise <5615>.
22. And <2532> the seven <2033> had <2983>(5627) her <846>, and <2532> left <863>(5656) no <3756> seed <4690>: last <2078> of all <3956> the woman <1135> died <599>(5627) also <2532>.
23. In <1722> the resurrection <386> therefore <3767>, when <3752> they shall rise <450>(5632), whose <5101> wife <1135> shall she be <2071>(5704) of them <846>? for <1063> the seven <2033> had <2192>(5627) her <846> to wife <1135>.
24. And <2532> Jesus <2424> answering <611>(5679) said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, Do ye <4105> <0> not <3756> therefore <1223> <5124> err <4105>(5743), because ye know <1492>(5761) not <3361> the scriptures <1124>, neither <3366> the power <1411> of God <2316>?
25. For <1063> when <3752> they shall rise <450>(5632) from <1537> the dead <3498>, they neither <3777> marry <1060>(5719), nor <3777> are given in marriage <1061>(5743); but <235> are <1526>(5748) as <5613> the angels <32> which <3588> are in <1722> heaven <3772>.
26. And <1161> as touching <4012> the dead <3498>, that <3754> they rise <1453>(5743): have ye <314> <0> not <3756> read <314>(5627) in <1722> the book <976> of Moses <3475>, how <5613> in <1909> the bush <942> God <2316> spake <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, saying <3004>(5723), I <1473> am the God <2316> of Abraham <11>, and <2532> the God <2316> of Isaac <2464>, and <2532> the God <2316> of Jacob <2384>?
27. He is <2076>(5748) not <3756> the God <2316> of the dead <3498>, but <235> the God <2316> of the living <2198>(5723): ye <5210> therefore <3767> do <4105> <0> greatly <4183> err <4105>(5743).
28. And <2532> one <1520> of the scribes <1122> came <4334>(5631), and having heard <191>(5660) them <846> reasoning together <4802>(5723), and perceiving <1492>(5761) that <3754> he had answered <611>(5662) them <846> well <2573>, asked <1905>(5656) him <846>, Which <4169> is <2076>(5748) the first <4413> commandment <1785> of all <3956>?
29. And <1161> Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, The <3754> first <4413> of all <3956> the commandments <1785> is, Hear <191>(5720), O Israel <2474>; The Lord <2962> our <2257> God <2316> is <2076>(5748) one <1520> Lord <2962>:
30. And <2532> thou shalt love <25>(5692) the Lord <2962> thy <4675> God <2316> with <1537> all <3650> thy <4675> heart <2588>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> thy <4675> soul <5590>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> thy <4675> mind <1271>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> thy <4675> strength <2479>: this <3778> is the first <4413> commandment <1785>.
31. And <2532> the second <1208> is like <3664>, namely this <3778>, Thou shalt love <25>(5692) thy <4675> neighbour <4139> as <5613> thyself <4572>. There is <2076>(5748) none <3756> other <243> commandment <1785> greater <3187> than these <5130>.
32. And <2532> the scribe <1122> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, Well <2573>, Master <1320>, thou hast said <2036>(5627) the <1909> truth <225>: for <3754> there is <2076>(5748) one <1520> God <2316>; and <2532> there is <2076>(5748) none <3756> other <243> but <4133> he <846>:
33. And <2532> to love <25>(5721) him <846> with <1537> all <3650> the heart <2588>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> the understanding <4907>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> the soul <5590>, and <2532> with <1537> all <3650> the strength <2479>, and <2532> to love <25>(5721) his neighbour <4139> as <5613> himself <1438>, is <2076>(5748) more <4119> than all <3956> whole burnt offerings <3646> and <2532> sacrifices <2378>.
34. And <2532> when Jesus <2424> saw <1492>(5631) that <3754> he answered <611>(5662) discreetly <3562>, he said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, Thou art <1488>(5748) not <3756> far <3112> from <575> the kingdom <932> of God <2316>. And <2532> no man <3762> after that <3765> durst <5111>(5707) ask <1905>(5658) him <846> any question.
35. And <2532> Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5679) and said <3004>(5707), while he taught <1321>(5723) in <1722> the temple <2411>, How <4459> say <3004>(5719) the scribes <1122> that <3754> Christ <5547> is <2076>(5748) the Son <5207> of David <1138>?
36. For <1063> David <1138> himself <846> said <2036>(5627) by <1722> the Holy <40> Ghost <4151>, The LORD <2962> said <2036>(5627) to my <3450> Lord <2962>, Sit thou <2521>(5737) on <1537> my <3450> right hand <1188>, till <2193> <302> I make <5087>(5632) thine <4675> enemies <2190> thy <4675> footstool <5286> <4228>.
37. David <1138> therefore <3767> himself <846> calleth <3004>(5719) him <846> Lord <2962>; and <2532> whence <4159> is he <2076>(5748) then his <846> son <5207>? And <2532> the common <4183> people <3793> heard <191>(5707) him <846> gladly <2234>.
38. And <2532> he said <3004>(5707) unto them <846> in <1722> his <848> doctrine <1322>, Beware <991>(5720) of <575> the scribes <1122>, which <3588> love <2309>(5723) to go <4043>(5721) in <1722> long clothing <4749>, and <2532> love salutations <783> in <1722> the marketplaces <58>,
39. And <2532> the chief seats <4410> in <1722> the synagogues <4864>, and <2532> the uppermost rooms <4411> at <1722> feasts <1173>:
40. Which <3739> devour <2719>(5723) widows <5503>' houses <3614>, and <2532> for a pretence <4392> make <4336> <0> long <3117> prayers <4336>(5740): these <3778> shall receive <2983>(5695) greater <4055> damnation <2917>.
41. And <2532> Jesus <2424> sat <2523>(5660) over against <2713> the treasury <1049>, and beheld <2334>(5707) how <4459> the people <3793> cast <906>(5719) money <5475> into <1519> the treasury <1049>: and <2532> many <4183> that were rich <4145> cast in <906>(5707) much <4183>.
42. And <2532> there came <2064>(5631) a certain <3391> poor <4434> widow <5503>, and she threw in <906>(5627) two <1417> mites <3016>, which <3603> make <2076>(5748) a farthing <2835>.
43. And <2532> he called <4341>(5666) unto him his <848> disciples <3101>, and saith <3004>(5719) unto them <846>, Verily <281> I say <3004>(5719) unto you <5213>, That <3754> this <3778> poor <4434> widow <5503> hath cast <906> <0> more <4119> in <906>(5758), than all <3956> they which have cast <906>(5631) into <1519> the treasury <1049>:
44. For <1063> all <3956> they did cast in <906>(5627) of <1537> their <846> abundance <4052>(5723); but <1161> she <3778> of <1537> her <848> want <5304> did cast in <906>(5627) all <3956> that <3745> she had <2192>(5707), even all <3650> her <848> living <979>.
