This synaggogoue is unique in several ways:
It is one of four in the southern Hebron mountains which have three things in common:
- No Columns
- Stone Menora's
- Entrance from the east (like in the temple)

Also they have very thick walls, and roling stones to close the entraces in case of emergency. The one in Susya additionally has an escape tunnel out of the synagogue.

But the most special feature here is that of the mosaics mentions a Yeshua (ישוע). Can you spot it?

I had the opportunity to pray in there with my jewish brothers. Thatr was so special!

Question 28: Who named Eve?

Answer:

Adam bestowed upon his companion the name of "Eve" (Genesis 3:20).

Question 27: Who was David’s mother?

Answer:

Her name is not given in Scripture. The reference to Abigail, one of the members of Jesse's family, in 2 Samuel 17:25, is frequently misunderstood. The Nahash there mentioned is either another name for Jesse or it refers to Nahash, king of Ammon, one of whose wives afterward became the wife of Jesse, as stated in the chronicles of the Jewish church.

Frequently asked questions and answers:

Question 26: What was the name of Cain’s wife?

Answer:

The name of Cain's wife is nowhere mentioned in the Bible. Arab traditions are preserved in one of which she is called Azura, in another Save, but these are not seriously regarded by scholars.

Question 25: What became of Aaron’s rod?

Answer:

It was preserved in the tabernacle and, according to Paul (see Hebrews 9:4), it was kept in the Ark, beside the two tablets of stone and the pot of manna. There is no mention of any other receptacle. The statement in 1 Kings 8:9 implies that by Solomon's time these relics had disappeared. It is possible however, for a different interpretation to be placed on Deuteronomy 31:26, which may mean that the rod was kept beside the Ark and not within it.

Question 24: What language did Adam and Eve speak?

Answer:

There are many mundane things beyond the reach of present human knowledge and the site of Eden and the language of our first parents are among the number. Some philologists have ventured the conjecture that the primeval language must have been a simple vocabulary whose formation is indicated in Genesis 2:19 and which was strictly limited to the natural requirements of our first progenitors; in other words, signs and sounds apprehensible by the senses. All agree that speech or the power of expressing emotions or desires was coeval with the creation of man. The earliest monuments and inscriptions yet discovered do not reach as far back into antiquity as the confusion of tongues at Babel (about B.C. 2200), previous to which (Genesis 2:1), the Biblical record states that "the whole earth was of one language and one speech," although probably there were many variations and dialects, each containing some element of the original tongue. Man's first utterances were probably what philologists’ term a "physical language," limited to the expression of simple needs and afterwards expanded to meet man's growing experience with his own nature and the world around him.
