Marilyn Joyce Segal Chiat - Handbook of Synagogue Architecture
Publisher: Scholars Press | 1982 | ISBN: 0891305246 | PDF | 404 pages | 13 MB
The contents of the book are both larger and more restricted than the title suggests. It deals not only with synagogue remains but also with ornamental,
epigraphic, numismatic evidence uncovered within the boundaries of ancient Palestine. These boundaries are not derived from talmudic or biblical sources, but are the limits of the city-territories formed by the Romans, following their conquest of the country. The author has opted for this division because she assumes that "Rome's division of Palestine accurately reflects the religious, social, and cultural configurations of the province" (p. 6). This option, however, forces her to include in her list a good number of places in which there are no remains at all of synagogues (e.g. more than half of the 17 entries east of the Jordan river). The chronological limits of the Handbook are nowhere clearly stated. In fact, the author deals only with synagogue remains from the first seven centuries of the common era.
