What did the synogogue look like in Jesus' time?

Answer 1

The synagogue that Jesus regularly taught in was made of black basalt stone and archaeologists date it back to at least 1AD

today the only main wall left in the synagogue is the wailing wall. the women and children where not allowed past certain parts of the synagogue and had to worship in a place called the women's court. the outside of the synagogue was just a plane grey stone. the grandest part of the synagogue is the sacrifice chamber only Jewish men and priests were allowed in the synagogue.

Answer 2

During the time of the Second Temple, Jews typically prayed there, but there were small Jewish communities that would pray together, roughly like a synagogue. The advent of the synagogue (en masse) came about after the destruction of the Second Temple by the Romans in 70 C.E., about 35 years after Jesus' death.
