Description
Summary:The building spirit that Jews have rediscovered thanks to the foundation of a Jewish state, did not materialize in religious but in profane buildings: most Israeli synagogues are inconspicuous and merge into the urban texture. They are inscribed in a long traditional experience of familiarity with things sacred, and have not much to do with Moses' or Abraham's solitary face to face with deity, nor even with what Jews experienced during past years pilgrimages to Jerusalem Temple. But today diaspora Jews find their bearings in other emblematic places such as museums and remembrance places.
