Lutz Doering reviews the current evidence for first-century, late Second-Temple synagogues and places the newly discovered synagogue at Magdala in this context. In doing so, he critically reviews previous proposals for the interpretation of the decoration and function of the Magdala stone table. Doering argues that, rather than providing a model of the Jerusalem Temple in the synagogue at Magdala, or bringing visitors of the synagogue into the Temple courts, the stone, through references to the Temple in its decoration, provides a connection between the local activity of Torah reading and the central institution of the Temple.
