Synagogue (put out of the)

an adjective denoting "expelled from the congregation, excommunicated," is used (a) with ginomai, "to become, be made," Joh 9:22, Joh 12:42; (b) with poieo, "to make," Joh 16:2. This excommunication involved prohibition not only from attendance at the "synagogue," but from all fellowship with Israelites.
