Shlama,
I made a mistake. Instead of Beth Tslotha for "house of prayer" in the Maccabees that should be Beth Tephila. Another Semitic usage would be Beth Ha-Keneseth (House of Assembly). The word "synagogue" is of Greek origin but widely accepted as we all know. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->
