The Hebrew above translates as:
"Little sanctuary and house of the witness Ishap Moreb, Efrein Wadowa's son, the year 65. Turn my God, and rebuild Jerusalem!"
(Translated by Sara Moretti for Art, Culture and Tourism in Córdoba)
"The Jews arrived in Córdoba before the Muslims and almost immediately made it a centre of learning. They established the Jewish Quarter after the city had become the centre of Muslim Spain. Its 14th century synagogue is one of three surviving medieval synagogues in Spain.
It has a women's gallery, and the upper reaches of its walls are in the Mudéjar stucco style with Hebrew inscriptions. These stuccos, like those of many mosques, alternate geometrical and vegetal motifs."
