Not only was there no longer a physical place to pray, even the sacred Scriptures were becoming scarce. Many of the biblical scrolls were lost or destroyed during the exile. In an attempt to preserve the Scriptures, the Rabbis divided up the biblical texts into weekly reading portions and distributed them among the families of Israel. Each was responsible for memorizing their assigned passage and then reading it in the synagogue every Sabbath. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis system of reading is the basis for the story found in Luke 4:16-17: \"He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis system is still in use today by Jews all over the world.
