συναγωγὰς
synagōgḗ
synagogues
Primary meaning: an assembly or gathering, especially of people brought together for a specific purpose. In Hellenistic and Roman contexts, most often denoting (1) a structured meeting or assembly of Judeans, frequently for religious instruction, prayer, and community affairs; and (2) the physical space or building where such gatherings occur. Secondarily, can refer generically to any assembly or congregation, but by the late Second Temple period is strongly associated with Judean communal religious life.
