Great Synagogue
Great Synagogue n. in rabbinical tradition: a Jewish council founded by Ezra and his associates after the return from the Babylonian Captivity to put various decrees into effect and conclude a covenant (Nehemiah 8–10).The historical reliability of this late tradition cannot be established. [Ultimately after post-biblical Hebrew kĕnesseṯ ha-gĕḏōlāh, lit. ‘Great Assembly’, ‘Great Synagogue’ (for the first element of the Hebrew compound, see Knesset n., and compare synagogue n.), although the precise origin of the institution is uncertain. Compare post-classical Latin synagoga magna (1550 or earlier).]
