Catholic Church Seeks New Bond With Judaism
The Vatican unveiled guidelines to improve relations with Judaism saying the church must build mutual esteem while continuing to preach Jesus Christ. The plan stresses respect for religious liberty, clarifies misinterpreted New Testament passages, and notes Jesus and early followers were Jews. A Jewish leader criticized parts as conversionary, warning that God’s covenant with Israel is everlasting. A Rome meeting Jan 7-9 will address the concerns.
