Synagogues are the Jewish houses of prayer; and Rabbis are the leaders of the Jewish communities. Most synagogues were and are guided by one or more Rabbis. The Rabbis (Torah-sages) spelled out the importance of praying in synagogue (public prayer) as part of living according to Judaism (Talmud, Berakhot 7b-8a). In addition, many synagogues have also functioned as places of Torah-learning, which is led by Rabbis who teach Torah to scholars and members of the laity. See also the Related Links.

How is rabbi and synagogue related?

The Hebrew word "Rabbi" means "teacher". Unlike Christian ministers who are divinely "called", rabbis acquire the title through study of traditional Jewish texts. In traditional Judaism, there was only one Temple -- the one in Jerusalem. After it was destroyed by the Romans, Jews met in "study houses" -- synagogues. Travelling rabbis stayed in the synagogue and conducted study sessions during their visits. Wealthier communities employed a rabbi full-time.


What are the titles of Jewish officials?

In ancient times, there were many titles, such as Kings, sages, prophets, and princes. Today, within the Jewish religion there are no officials at all, unless you count Rabbis and Cantors, the spiritual leaders of synagogues.
