Purpose-built synagogues stood in Galilean towns during the first century — the setting the Gospels take for granted.
Подтверждено раскопкамиРаскопки1st century AD
A synagogue in use before AD 70, with mosaic and fresco, and at its centre a carved stone block showing a seven-branched menorah — the earliest such depiction known from a synagogue, and apparently carved by someone who had seen the temple.
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues.

Что она показывает
The building is securely pre-70. Any link to a particular visit is not something the archaeology can supply.

A major find for the history of the synagogue; only a handful of pre-70 examples are known.
