This week's podcast features a Focus On Israel episode where we take a closer look at Nostra Aetate, the formal document of the Catholic Church that decries hatred, persecution and displays of antisemitism against the Jewish people. In September of 1960, Pope John the 23rd asked that a decree be written defining the relationship between the Church and the Jews. The document was ultimately signed by Pope John Paul VI following its adaption in 1965. In this remarkable document, the Catholic Church acknowledged that the Jewish people are not responsible for the death of Jesus, citing the elimination of the deicide narrative, and recognizing that the Jewish covenant with God for the land of Israel has not been broken. It further states that Christianity sprang from Jewish roots and is inextricably intertwined with Judaism.
