Deir Aziz Synagogue

HOLY LAND PHOTOS' BLOG: Deir Aziz Synagogue (Golan Heights) (Carl Rasmussen).
Deir Aziz (“Monastery of Aziz”) is a site located 4 mi. [6.5 km.] east of the Sea of Galilee on the north side of a wadi that flows into the Nahal Qanaf. There is a very powerful spring at Deir Aziz and the remains of a prominent synagogue that dates to the Talmudic/Byzantine Period.
With photos, of course.
