Sy‧na‧go‧ge′ (a bringing together) was the meeting place for Jewish scholars from the days of Ezra or Nehemiah to the Great Sanhedrin of the third century B.C.E., and the center of Jewish life.

One who was 'cast out' as wicked would be cut off entirely, shunned and avoided by other Jews and be unable to conduct commercial transactions in the market place beyond the basic necessities of life.

Rulers would lose their positions, sacrifice their standing in the social, political, and religious circles and be considered worthy of death in the Jewish community.

Jesus foretold that his followers would be expelled from the synagogues. (John 16:2)

Fear of expulsion kept many Jews, even the rulers, from confessing Jesus. (John 9:22, 12:42) An example of such action by the synagogue was the blind man who'd been healed by Jesus and spoke favorably of him.-John 9:34.

Did the Pharisees kill Jesus out of fear or jealous?

They had him put to death for many reasons. Fear was part of it. Jesus was looked at as an instigator and provocateur and the Pharisees were afraid that he (Jesus) would eventually bring the wrath of the Roman Empire down on them.

Is cynder the black dragon real?

Yes, he is very real people may tell you he isn't, but that is because they don't want you to be afraid. But people need to fear him other wise he will come out of his cave is scottland, and release his terror on this earth. See he lives on peoples fear. If people are afraid of him he is satisfied and doesn't attack, but when people stop fearing him he has to come out and put the fear back in them. Tell you family, tell your friends tell everyone you know to be afraid, very afraid, as long as you want this world to be safe.


How was Christ perceived by people?

In the book of Mark chapter 6 verses 1 through 6 you can read of His teachings in the synagogue. The people were astonished saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are preformed by His hands!" And at the same time they(the people) were offended at Him because they knew Him as the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas,And Simon. They also knew His sisters. Thus, it seems there was a degree of ambiguity about how they received him. It says elsewhere that the common people heard Him gladly. Yet we are also told in one place that people withdrew and 'walked no more with Him.' A number of times it also indicates that many were afraid of the Pharisees who had declared that anyone who believed in Him would be put out of the synagogue. Yet, in all this it is clear that He enjoyed, at least at times a high degree of popularity and interest, since there always seemed to be crowds that followed Him. In places we are told that people were seeking Him for healing and that many miracles were done by Him. In relation to His popularity, it is recorded in several places that his is one of the reasons the leaders sought to kill Him -they were jealous of His popularity. Pilate was apparently aware that 'they had delivered Him for envy.'
