Program for the Dedication Service of the Avondale Synagogue, Adath Israel Congregation (Cincinnati, Ohio)

September 11 1927

caption:
"And when I repair the wasted Temple of the Lord, I shall widen its curtains and open more windows; and the light will sweep away the darkness of its shadow, and when the cloud will rise, the glory of the Lord will descend. Then all flesh will see, from great to small, that grass withereth, the flower fadeth, but the Lord is for aye." (BIALIK—"On the Threshold of the Beth-Midrash.")
 
The underlying idea in the selection of the passages is this: The great circle at the base of the dome, more than 252 feet in circumference, symbolizes the unbroken thread of religious sentiment from the days of the Bible down to our own day. This is probably the only synagog in the world bearing an inscription from Chayim Nachman Malik.
