May 29, 2016 at 12:17 comment added Clockwork-Muse The temple was where they offered sacrifices (and a few other things), and Jews were expected to go there multiple times during their life (potentially multiple times a year). Synagogues were closer to debate clubs or society offices, and I'm reasonably certain sacrifices didn't happen there. They're mentioned multiple times in the New Testament, so they definitely existed during the Second Temple period. I think I read something about them starting during the exile, but can't recall where now.
