THE SAMARITAN SYNAGOGUE 



This, the only house of worship which the Samaritans possess, is a very plain building 

 and only a few hundred years old. In the recess to the left, behind ornamented curtains, are 

 primitive safes and cupboards containing many parchments and Pentateuchs, among them 

 the noted A.bishua Codex (see illustration, page 12).
