Reviewing what we now know about actual synagogues in the land of Israel and their public role in Jewish life and culture, Jordan J. Ryan shows that Gospel narratives placed in synagogues accurately reflect the ancient synagogue setting. He argues for the historical plausibility of the setting of these narratives and suggests that synagogue research must be a starting point for their interpretation. He further argues that Jesusās efforts at the restoration of Israel were intentionally aimed at the synagogue as an institution of public and political life.

Lots of churches around the world are struggling to survive. Maybe instead they should follow Jesus into death so that they can rise again. I suggest several things that churches can do to follow Jesus into the world. These ways allow us to BE the church rather than just attend church.

Immediately after my story of incarceration in the Synagogue which was featured in my first Book began to go viral, other victims of T.B. Joshua from different walks of life got contagious through the act, and courageously spring out of their shell to share with me their personal negative experiences in the Synagogue. The wound many of them had licked privately for many years, and concealed the shame, loses, and embarrassments under the garments of plague of silence. Our silence is on the other hands empowering the psychopaths that are into fakery, molestation, and diabolical acts. We don't want to enable them, this is why we are sharing our stories for others to learn. Some of the stories are hilarious, while majority of them are frightening, disheartening, and sorrowful. I decided to have them shared with you in this book for the same reason why I did mine. To be a light to those who grope in darkness.Spiritual and Physical killings are rampant in the Synagogue, 'church' of all Nations, which is one of the things that cushions T.B. Joshua' demonic powers. I believe no reasonable person will seek for protection, healing or deliverance in such a damned place.The acts of Fatai Balogun alias T.B. Joshua of the Synagogue of satanism and lawlessness can no longer be hidden or covered up, God is helping those that were wounded and abused in this unholy place called the Synagogue to find strength to expose T.B. Joshua, despising the shame so that others may learn and never fall prey of the RAVENING WOLVES (Matthew 7: 15).

Annotation The synagogue was one of the most central and revolutionary institutions of ancient Judaism leaving an indelible mark on Christianity and Islam as well. This commanding book provides an in-depth and comprehensive history of the synagogue from the Hellenistic period to the end of late antiquity. Drawing exhaustively on archeological evidence and on such literary sources as rabbinic material, the New Testament, Jewish writings of the Second Temple period, and Christian and pagan works, Lee Levine traces the development of the synagogue from what was essentially a communal institution to one which came to embody a distinctively religious profile. Exploring its history in the Greco-Roman and Byzantine periods in both Palestine and the Diaspora, he describes the synagogue's basic features: its physical remains; its role in the community; its leadership; the roles of rabbis, Patriarchs, women, and priests in its operation; its liturgy; and its art. What emerges is a fascinating mosaic of a dynamic institution that succeeded in integrating patterns of social and religious behavior from the contemporary non-Jewish society while maintaining a distinctively Jewish character.
