Without faith it is impossible to please God and without faith in the historical accuracy of the New Testament it is impossible to discover the origin and purpose of Synagogue worship. Introduction: A. God's eternal purpose in the Christian church: "The manifold wisdom of God is now made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places. This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus" (Eph 3:8-12) 1. The rise of Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome were all part of God's eternal purpose in the Christian church. 2. The mass conversion of the Jewish population to speak Greek was a providential part of God's eternal purpose in the Christian church. 3.

With Josephus recording two imperial decrees (49 and 48 BC), we can be certain the Sardis synagogue existed before 49 BC, even as far back as 220 BC wherein Sardis joins a family of being among the earliest synagogues on earth. 3. The importance of the city of Sardis, as a commercial center of the former capital of the Persian empire which dates back as far as 536 BC, is matched by the Jewish synagogue in Sardis with a continuous 665 year occupation history (49 BC - 616 AD) 4. Although inscriptional evidence from Josephus Antiquities 14.235 makes the existence of a synagogue building certain in 49 BC, the synagogue likely dates back to the time of Seleucid King Antiochus III (223-187 BC) who was contemporary with Ptolemy III who are a major powerhouse in establishing diaspora synagogues.

The genesis of synagogues throughout the world followed the distribution of the LXX. c.

It is both short-sighted and unprofessional to date the occupation of an historic synagogue based solely upon the conclusions of an archeological report because "absence of archeological evidence is not evidence of absence". 2. Archeologists know first hand the limitations of professional three dimensional excavations. 3. Archeologists routinely ignore inscriptional and literary evidence of actual synagogue occupation. 4. For example, no one questions that Solomon built a temple in Jerusalem in 966 BC, even though there is zero direct archeological evidence for it. Like wise with the exodus route. B. Here are six examples to illustrate the new occupational dating system which should be adopted in all universities: 1.
