Best Answer

Jewish communities in Greece were not endemic. They had more to do with where Jews from the Judean Territories had settled in Greece and proselytized. It just so happened that Philippi was a city where the Jews had not established a large presence by the time of the New Testament.

Answer:

It has been speculated that the Jewish community in Philippi was very small, not large enough to warrant the building of a synagogue. We may assume that they prayed in a private residence, just as sometimes happens today.
