  • The Wofford Israel Trip Leaves on Friday, January 6, on a 15 Hour Flight from GSP, Through New York, and to Tel Aviv
    Wofford's Israel Trip JANUARY 01, 2006 ISRAEL BOUND on JANUARY 6! The Wofford Israel trip leaves on Friday, January 6, on a 15 hour flight from GSP, through New York, and to Tel Aviv. With the 7 hour time difference, it will "seem" like a 22 hour flight. If you thought sitting through an 80' lecture from Dr. Moss was tough; wait til you try a 15 hour flight! [Of course, that includes a 3 hour lay-over in NY]. JANUARY 07, 2006 First Day In Israel Hi from Nazareth! We made it to Israel safely and with almost all of our things. It is great to be here, but we are looking forward to a good night's rest. We left the airport around lunchtime today and spent the afternoon in Caesarea and Megiddo. We had our first taste of Israeli food at lunch in a local restaurant. It was a lot different from our typical American restaurants, but I think we all enjoyed it. Caesarea is a Roman city built on the Mediterranean by Herod a few years before Jesus was born. The city contains a theatre, bathhouse, aqueduct, and palace among other things. The theatre was large and had a beautiful view of the Mediterranean. There was an aqueduct (about 12 miles of which are still in tact) which provided water to the city. The palace, which sits on the edge of the water, was home to Pontius Pilot after Herod s death. We then went to Megiddo, which is a city, much of which was built by King Solomon over 3000 years ago.

  • Theological Monthly
    Concoll~i(] Theological Monthly DECEMBER • 1959 The Theology of Synagog Architecture (As Reflected in the Excavation ReportS) By MARTIN H. SCHARLEMANN ~I-iE origins of the synagog are lost in the obscurity of the past. There seem to be adequate reasons for believing that this ~ religious institution did not exist in pre-Exilic times. Whether, however, the synagog came into being during the dark years of the Babylonian Captivity, or whether it dates back only to the early centuries after the return of the Jews to Palestine, is a matter of uncertainty. The oldest dated evidence we have for the existence of a synagog was found in Egypt in 1902 and consists of a marble slab which records the dedication of such a building at Schedia, near Alexandria. The inscription reads as follows: In honor of King Ptolemy and Queen Berenice, his sister and wife, and their children, the Jews (dedicate) this synagogue.1 Apparently the Ptolemy referred to is the one known as the Third, who ruled from 247 to 221 B. C. If this is true, it is not unreasonable to assume that the synagog existed as a religious institution in Egypt by the middle of the third century B. C. Interestingly enough, the inscription calls the edifice a :JtQOOE'UXY!, which is the word used in Acts 16 for something less than a per­ manent structure outside the city of Philippi. This was the standard Hellenistic term for what in Hebrew was (and is) normally known as no.pi'1 n~, the house of assembly, although there are contexts where it is referred to as i1~!:l~i'1 n::1, the house of prayer, possibly echoing Is.

  • Ancient Synagogues in the Holy Land - What Synagogues?
    Reproduced from the Library of the Editor of www.theSamaritanUpdate.com Copyright 2008 We support Scholars and individuals that have an opinion or viewpoint relating to the Samaritan-Israelites. These views are not necessarily the views of the Samaritan-Israelites. We post the articles from Scholars and individuals for their significance in relation to Samaritan studies.) Ancient Synagogues in the Holy Land - What Synagogues? By David Landau 1. To believe archaeologists, the history of the Holy Land in the first few centuries of the Christian Era goes like this: After many year of staunch opposition to foreign influence the Jews finally adopted pagan symbols; they decorated their synagogues with naked Greek idols (Hammat Tiberias) or clothed ones (Beth Alpha), carved images of Zeus on their grave (Beth Shearim), depicted Hercules (Chorazin) and added a large swastika turning to the left (En Gedi) to their repertoire, etc. Incredible. I maintain that the so-called synagogues were actually Roman temples built during the reign of Maximin (the end of the 3rd century and beginning of the 4th) as a desperate means to fight what the roman considered the Christian menace. I base my conclusion on my study of the orientations of these buildings, their decorations and a testimony of the Christian historian Eusebius of Caesaria. 2. In 1928, foundations of an ancient synagogue were discovered near kibbutz Beth Alpha in the eastern Jezreel Valley at the foot of Mt. Gilboa. Eleazar Sukenik, the archaeologist who excavated the site wrote (1932: 11): Like most of the synagogues north of Jerusalem and west of the Jordan, the building is oriented in an approximately southerly direction.

  • Did the Synagogue Replace the Temple?
    Bible Review 12, no. 2 (1996). Did the Synagogue Replace the Temple? By Steven Fine In 70 C.E. Roman legions destroyed the Jerusalem Temple, Judaism’s holiest structure and the “dwelling place of God’s name.” Despite this loss, Judaism was to survive and prosper. In the following centuries, the synagogue itself came to be seen as a “holy place.” Does this mean, as some people suppose, that the synagogue as we know it developed after the destruction of the Temple and was, in fact, its replacement? Not exactly. Communal meeting places that we can recognize as synagogues existed while the Temple still stood, at least by the mid­first century B.C.E. The second part of the question—Did the synagogue replace the Temple?—is not so easily answered. The origins of the synagogue are shrouded in mystery, and scholarly opinions as to its beginnings vary. Some scholars trace its development to the First Temple period, others to the Exile in Babylonia, and still others (including the author) to the latter Second Temple period in Palestine. Virtually all scholars recognize that the synagogue was a well­developed institution at least a century before the Romans destroyed the Temple. Synagogues in the Land of Israel are mentioned by the Jewish philosopher, exegete and communal leader Philo of Alexandria (c. 20 B.C.E.­40 C.E.); by the first­century C.E. Jewish historian Flavius Josephus; in the New Testament; and in rabbinic literature. Archaeology provides additional evidence for the early dating of the origins of the synagogue.

  • Jewish Women in Antiquity
    Jewish Women in Ancient Synagogues: Archeological Reality vs. Rabbinical Legislation Jewish Women in Ancient Synagogues: Archeological Reality vs. Rabbinical Legislation Hannah Wortzman1, Hebrew University, Jerusalem Israel Abstract Several ancient synagogues, active from the fourth to the sixth century of the Common Era, contained images of women with exposed body parts, against which the Talmudic sages legislated and deemed licentious. This paper suggests that despite the rabbinic legislation requiring women to cover certain parts of their body, segments of the Jewish society held different views as to what was considered indecent. Moreover, the fact that these images were discovered in synagogues proposes an even bolder assumption, that is, that these women’s images were tolerated during the services. Introduction In the field of ancient Jewish history, textual and archeological evidence are often the only sources of information that historians can access to describe the past. When these two sources differ in their presentation of the past, one needs to re-examine the literary evidence and question the historical accuracy and intention of the texts. In treating the Babylonian Talmud as textual evidence, one could question why the authors or editors of the texts decided to ignore the reality of the environment in which they lived. What can we learn from the differences, if they are apparent, between the texts and the archeological findings? To what extent was the rabbinical rulings actually implemented by ancient Jewish communities in Israel and the Diaspora? Erwin Goodenough, followed by Jacob Neusner, appropriately answer some of these questions by noting that in fact "rabbinic control had lapsed" by the third century CE.2 This is evident when comparing the images of women in ancient synagogues to the dress code imposed on Jewish women.

  • The Zodiac at Beth Alpha Follows 1 Enoch 82
    1 The Zodiac at Beth Alpha Follows 1 Enoch 82 David landau 1. Introduction Several zodiacs have been found during archaeological excavations in the land of Israel and they seem to differ from each other. On the zodiac found at Beth Alpha Sukenik (1932: 38) wrote: In the four corners of the square enclosing the cycle of the Zodiac are shown the four seasons of the year. It is hard to understand the reason why the craftsmen did not show the seasons near their corresponding months. Spring is found near the summer months, Summer near the autumn months, and so on. We find the same in the Na'aran mosaic. There the symbol of Spring is shown near the Zodiac signs Libra and Virgo, and Autumn opposite Aries and Pisces, and so on. Wiesenberg (1972: 50) wrote: Convincing illustration of palpable ignorance in matters of calendar, on the part of people otherwise highly gifted, may be seen in the famous sixth-century mosaic floor of the zodiac with the tekufah of Nisan at the beginning of Virgo , that of Tammuz at the beginning of Sagittarius , that of Tishri at the beginning of Pisces and that Tevet at the beginning of Gemini (sic!). (Emphasis original) In other words, the craftsmen and those who commissioned their work were ignorant. In this paper I endeavor to demonstrate that the zodiac found at Beth Alpha follows 1 Enoch 82. 2. Ancient Zodiacs in the Land of Israel The zodiac was first developed by the Chaldean astronomers and spread to the ancient world and was adopted as such by the Jews, hence the Jewish zodiac.

Competing Narratives: How Israel and Palestine Interpret Their Own Histories Thesis Jake Kubiak PRIMARY QUESTION How do Israelis and Palestinians interpret their own histories as evidence that they have claim over Israeli held territory? ABSTRACT The Israeli-Palestinian War over Israeli-held territories has been a major controversy for many years. The modern conflict has been raging on since 1948. This conflict has caused the displacement of 1.4 million Palestinians, uprooting them from what they believe to be their ancestral home. Along with this displacement, the conflict has caused infrastructural collapse and the rise of terrorist organizations within Israel and Palestinian territories. Both groups have their own evidence in claiming the Israeli-held territory, including archaeological history and ancient texts to argue that they are the rightful owners of this land.
