Synagogue

Where does the Jew go once they have accepted Yeshua? Church or synagogue? There seems to be quite a variety of opinions on this topic. While Telchin remains faithful to the viability of the church as an instrument of evangelism, he does acknowledge how some Jews feel more comfortable in the synagogue environment. The letter from Lorie that he references says it the best when she relays that, “I don’t have to worry about well-meaning…

“The Night of Broken Glass” affected the Jews in big ways. Their families were endangered, their emotions were everywhere, and their sacred grounds were burned down in front of them. Jews were humiliated on the streets. Their shops and buildings were being torn down everywhere they looked. Not a single jew was protected, even the police didn’t help them, even though it was their job to do so. To begin with, during this time of grief the Jewish families were very much affected. “The…

who were beyond human help were healed by Jesus Christ (Guelich 304). The story takes place as Jesus crosses a lake into the Gentile territory. Once he arrived on land he was surrounded by people that came all over to see him. The president of the synagogue named Jarius approached him at once and pleaded “Jesus my little daughter is close to death you must come and put your hands on her so she will live” (Mann 281). So Jesus went with Jarius. As he moved through the very large crowd a woman who…

people simply refer to their only god as “God” even though the Hebrew Bible references him as “Yahweh” or “Elohim”. Another difference between Hinduism and Judaism is the way their believers are expected to worship. Followers of Judaism worship in synagogues or temples with a rabbi preaching and reading prayers to a mass amount of people. A typical service would include attendees spreading their prayers and best wishes amongst their community and those also attending the service. Unlike Jews,…

has its foundations as an organized religion in the Middle East amid the Bronze Age. Judaism was established more than 3500 years prior in the Middle East. The synagogue is the Jewish place of worship, but is also used as a place to study, and often as a community center as well. Orthodox Jews often use the Yiddish word shul as their synagogue. In America they’re often called temples. The most important Jewish holy days are the Sabbath, the three pilgrimage festivals (Passover, Shavuot, and…

The damages ranged from broken glass, to torched buildings. Germans pillaged the stores and synagogues, then torched them afterwards. Glass that wasn’t destroyed had slanderous statements against the Jews left on them. The number of synagogues damaged is in the hundreds, if they were even still standing. Throughout all of Germany glass littered the streets as Jews wandered home to see if anything remained. Some of the…

with faith throughout the region. These events led to many conversations amongst the Gentiles, and eventually leading to the book of James. The book was written as a letter, and was passed from “Synagogue to Synagogue.” The book went through a number of places within the believers in Christ. Each Synagogue that the letter went to make their own copy…

have known that it is the way of the ungodly to not tell the truth. I find it at least reasonable to believe he was saved but Satan filled his heart to lie. Certainly, this must be true. Revelation 3:9 “Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.” God watches over the Church of Philadelphia and knows those who claim to be…

the Jewish were forced to pay for all damage done to property during Kristallnacht. Although the atrocities perpetrated during the Night of Broken Glass did arouse outrage in Western Europe and the United States. “Broken glass from the windows of synagogues, homes, and Jewish-owned businesses were plundered and destroyed during the violence,”(USHMM 1). It owes its name to the shards of shattered glass that lined German streets in the wake of the…

Around the sixth century the first of the Hebrew people settled in the Iberian Peninsula. At this time captives and exiles spent most their time here in the peninsula since they were sent there. Most of the stories are just word of mouth passed down from Muslim Spain while they were enjoying life. So the inquiry may be how did Jewish life start in Christian Spain? In the north of the peninsula landmass minute Hebrew groups were already established there before the tenth century. Around a century…
