Thou hast asked about places of worship and the
underlying reason therefor. The wisdom in raising up such
buildings is that at a given hour, the people should know it
is time to meet, and all should gather together, and,
harmoniously attuned one to another, engage in prayer;
with the result that out of this coming together, unity and
affection shall grow and flourish in the human heart.
