synagogue, place of Jewish assembly
1. synagogue, place of Jewish assembly — A building or gathering place where Jews assemble for worship, prayer, and reading of Scripture; used throughout the Gospels and Acts for the local houses of worship where Jesus and the apostles taught. Singular and plural forms represent the same core referent. Cross-linguistic evidence is remarkably uniform: Spanish 'sinagoga/sinagogas', Hindi 'आराधनालय' (house of worship) and 'सभागृह' (assembly hall), Arabic 'مَجمَع/مَجَامِع' (gathering place), Korean '회당' (assembly hall), Swahili 'sinagogi/masinagogi' — all consistently denoting a Jewish worship assembly place. The Hindi gloss 'सभागृह' (assembly house) highlights the communal gathering aspect rather than purely religious function. 56×
