JERUSALEM (JNI) — It
has 15 Italian crystal chan-
deliers — one with brass
weighing 3.5 tons; more
seats — 1,700 in oak and red
plush — than any other
synagogue in Israel; the
only Shabat escalator in the
capital; a unique sliding
ceiling that allows indoor
weddings to be held under
the open sky; hundreds of
electric bulbs surrounding a
massive bima platform; and
innumerable slabs of Ita-
lian and Greek marble.
The Jerusalem Great
Synagogue, proudly billed
by its .initiator and chair-
man Maurice Jaffe as "the
world's most beautiful
synagogue," is criticized for
being just that: a massive,
ornate and expensive
structure ($14.5 million
contributed by Diaspora
Jews, including $8 million

from British philanthropist
Sir Isaac Wolfson) intended
to serve as the central
synagogue of the Jewish
people.
Jaffe has little patience
for objections to the expense
of the new building, dedi-
cated Aug. 4. "Why should a
synagogue in Jerusalem,be
less beautiful than those
throughout the world?" he
queried.
Jerusalem
Mayor
Teddy Kollek, among the
most prominent critics,
notes the shoi.tage of
some 20-30 synagogues in
the capital's new
neighborhoods to ex-
plain, "If the Great
Synagogue had been less
luxurious, it would have
honored Jerusalem
more. The remaining do-
nations could have been
used to solve most of
Jerusalem's synagogue
needs."
On the contrary, Jaffe
feels the new synagogue
will provide a source of in-
come, both for Israel and for
charitable institutions in
the country. Jews will come
from all over the world to
hold weddings and Bnai
Mitzva in the synagogue, he
predicted, aiding tourism
too.
If alluring tourists is the
primary intention, the op-
position maintains, the
synagogue shouldn't be
promoted as the
gathering-place and unifier
of the whole Jewish people.
At the opening ceremony,
President Yitzhak Navon
also noted the importance of
matching a synagogue to
the population which it is to
serve. "If prayers will be
held in the Ashkenazi,
Sephardi, Yemenite and
other modes, then it will
really be a central
synagogue," said Navon.
Then all population sectors
will be drawn to services.
But if not, he added, "it
would be just another
synagogue in Jerusalem."
