A Jewish synagogue contains a Holy Ark, which hold the Torah, and Bima, which is a platform on which the cantor, or prayer leader, stands.
Services contain only prayer. There is no communion, or anything of that sort. It's straight-up praying to God, led by the cantor.
Orthodox and many Conservative services are in Hebrew. Reform is usually in English.
Most synagogues do not have a choir, but some Reform ones do.
And whatever Ruth said, too.
