Exegesis

The paired phrases en synagōgē {ἐν συναγωγῇ | en synagōgē} and en tō hierō {ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ | en tō hierō} create a coordinated public-setting pattern: synagogue and temple are both visible, communal places of instruction.

In contextJohn 18:20

Jesus answered him, “I have spoken publicly before the world . I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews gather, and I said nothing in secret.”
