The correct answers are:

Rabbis emerged as religious leaders in Jewish communities. Jews began to build synagogues as places of worship.

The Jewish Diaspora has been a constant process along history, and has consisted on the dispersion of the Jewish after being expelled from their homeland in the current territory of Israel. Afterwards, Jewish settlements have been spread all over the world. This lack of territory has changed the cult of the jews in many ways:

After the destruction of the Solomon's Temple in Jerusalen, priests lost their role as preachers. Instead, rabbis arised as community leaders and taught the Torah. Also the destruction of the temple led to the construction of synagogues after a period of temporary worshipping at private homes.
