What is the building in Jerusalem where the Jews worshiped God?
The Holy Temple, which was built by King Solomon (1 Kings ch.6-8) and (several centuries later) rebuilt by Ezra. Note that even while the Temple stood, Jews always worshiped in synagogues too. Even within the Temple premises, there were several synagogues. During the Second Temple era, ancient Greek authors attest to the large synagogues that stood in all the countries where Jews lived. The Dioploston in Alexandria, for example, was famous for its size (Talmud, Tosefta Sukkah 4:6). In First Temple times also, synagogues served the same function that they do today (Talmud, Megillah 26b and Berakhot 31a).

Why is the Solomon's temple smaller than most churches?
4000 years ago, building technology was very different than it is today (or even compared to 800 years ago when Europe's big churches began to be built). It was very difficult to achieve large spans and manipulate envelopes of buildings beyond a certain size. The Hebrews probably didn't have access to those types of technological solutions (the Egyptians used them at that time, but they would be a rare exception). In it's time, it would have been considered quite large for a building.You'll note that in lieu of a large covered structure which could hold everything, the program of the temple building itself mostly contains the priestly activities, and the exterior grounds were actually quite extensive. This outdoor gathering space allowed for the myriad of large group activities to be accomplished *at* the temple, though not *in* it.In short, the temple was big for its time, and used a lot of outdoor space.
