The Great Synagogue


The Great Synagogue in Jerusalem is a modern place of worship today. 

A member of the synagogue met our group and gave us a tour. Men must wear a head covering to enter the synagogue. There are skull caps to borrow at the entrance if needed.

The lobby contains a large Mezuzah collection.  

Beautiful stained glass windows and doors:

Several scrolls are kept behind these beautiful doors.

Next stop on our tour is Saint Anne’s Church and the Pool of Bethesda.
