The temple shops or Hebrew plural ''hanuyot'' (חנויות) were buildings near the Temple in Jerusalem mentioned in the Babylonian Talmud (B.Shabbat 15a, B.Rosh Hashanah 31a; B.Avodah Zarah 8b).〔''Jerusalem: portrait of the city in the second Temple period (538 B.C.E.-70 C.E.)'' ed. Lee I. Levine, Jewish Theological Seminary of America p235〕 According to the Talmud the Sanhedrin relocated to the temple shops, ''hanuyot'', at some point before the destruction of the Temple in 70 CE. The plural ''hanuyot'' is also the word for "shops" in modern Hebrew.〔''Oxford Hebrew-English Dictionary,'' OUP〕 The hanuyot are to be distinguished from the temple treasury or grain storehouse (אוצר 'otsar) for the Temple in Jerusalem mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. The Talmud indicates that the hanuyot were where the Priests and Levites stored the accoutrements for the daily functioning of the Temple. The ''hanuyot'' consisted of a single room along the southern edge of the Mount, almost long and wide. Its single story was high. Mazar (1975) identifies the ''hanuyot'' with the Royal Stoa, a basilica erected by Herod the Great at the southern end of his expansion of the Temple Mount. When the Roman government limited the powers of the Sanhedrin, ca. 30 CE, the Sanhedrin moved from their chambers inside the ''azarah'' (Chamber of Hewn Stone) to the ''hanuyot'' (Talmud Rosh ha-Shanah 31a). The ''hanuyot'' were destroyed along with the Temple by the Romans in 70 CE. Unlike the Temple, which was completely destroyed, a significant portion of the ''hanuyot'' may have survived the destruction as the current Al-Aqsa Mosque includes rows of ancient Corinthian columns that clearly predate the Islamic architecture. ==See also== * Temple in Jerusalem * Royal Stoa (Jerusalem) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chanuyot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
